mvcp_est.f

A function for estimating age from 8 teeth via multivariate cumulative probit and a user-determined prior.
Call directly iff you do NOT want to correct for fuzzy posteriors. Call find_fuzzies.f otherwise.

Bayesian methods for estimating developmental age from ordinal dental data. For an explanation of the model used, see Konigsberg (2015) <doi:10.3109/03014460.2015.1045430>. For details on the conditional correlation correction, see Sgheiza (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.forsciint.2021.111135>. Dental scoring is based on Moorrees, Fanning, and Hunt (1963) <doi:10.1177/00220345630420062701>.
