score

Extract the score function (gradient of the log-likelihood) from a
model object.

A general implementation of Structural Equation Models
with latent variables (MLE, 2SLS, and composite likelihood
estimators) with both continuous, censored, and ordinal
outcomes (Holst and Budtz-Joergensen (2013) <doi:10.1007/s00180-012-0344-y>).
Mixture latent variable models and non-linear latent variable models
(Holst and Budtz-Joergensen (2020) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxy082>).
The package also provides methods for graph exploration (d-separation,
back-door criterion), simulation of general non-linear latent variable
models, and estimation of influence functions for a broad range of
statistical models.
