Description: An R interface to the MASAL (Multivariate Adaptive Splines for
    Analysis of Longitudinal data) algorithm originally developed by Heping Zhang.
    MASAL fits flexible nonparametric regression models to longitudinal data using
    adaptive spline bases selected via forward/backward stepwise procedures with
    GCV model selection. It supports both independent (regression) and correlated
    (longitudinal) data, and models the covariance structure as a function of time.
