  <dc:title>(Bayesian) Additive Voronoi Tessellations</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package AddiVortes version 0.4.8</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Implements the Bayesian Additive Voronoi Tessellation 
    model for non-parametric regression and machine learning as introduced
    in Stone and Gosling (2025) &lt;doi:10.1080/10618600.2024.2414104&gt;.
    This package provides a flexible alternative to BART (Bayesian Additive 
    Regression Trees) using Voronoi tessellations instead of trees. Users can 
    fit Bayesian regression models, estimate posterior distributions, and 
    visualise the resulting tessellations. It is particularly useful for spatial
    data analysis, machine learning regression, complex function approximation 
    and Bayesian modeling where the underlying structure is unknown. The method 
    is well-suited to capturing spatial patterns and non-linear relationships.</dc:description>
