Implements a unified predictive framework in which individual parameters are decomposed as theta_i equal to theta_ref plus Delta(x_i, theta_ref), with theta_ref a population reference and Delta an explicit deviation function. The decomposition follows the Additive-Multiplicative-Modulated canonical form and is estimated through three complementary paths: hierarchical Bayesian inference via 'Stan', varying-coefficient models via penalized splines, and amortized inference via hypernetworks in 'torch'. The package provides identifiability diagnostics, validity tests for the population reference, and benchmarks against canonical zero-inflated count datasets and avian abundance data from the eBird Status and Trends project. The framework and its estimation paths are described in Gomez Julian (2026) <doi:10.5281/zenodo.21046269>.
