  <dc:title>Lactation Curve Model Fitting for Dairy Animals</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package LactCurveModels version 0.1.5</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Fits up to 20 nonlinear lactation curve models to dairy animal
    milk yield data. Models fitted include exponential, polynomial, mixed
    logarithmic, inverse polynomial, and sigmoid families published
    between 1923 and 2000. Supports batch processing of multiple animals
    from a single CSV file, with flexible selection of animals and models.
    Produces per-animal parameter tables, goodness-of-fit metrics including
    R-squared (R2), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Akaike Information
    Criterion (AIC), Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and a serial
    autocorrelation statistic, 15 diagnostic figures, and combined
    cross-animal comparison outputs.
