likelihood.contr: Likelihood Contribution Models for Heterogeneous Observation Types

Constructs likelihood models from heterogeneous observation types by composing named contributions. Each observation type (exact, left-censored, right-censored, interval-censored, or custom) contributes independently to the total log-likelihood, which is summed under an i.i.d. assumption. Provides contr_name() for standard R distributions and contr_fn() for user-defined contributions, composed via likelihood_contr() into objects compatible with the likelihood.model inference framework.
