Description: Tobit models are regression models with a Gaussian
        response variable left-censored at zero, constant latent
        variance, and a latent mean that depends on covariates through
        a linear predictor. As an alternative to plain maximum
        likelihood estimation, the adjusted score equations of Kosmidis
        and Firth (2010) <doi:10.1214/10-ejs579> are utilized to obtain
        bias-reduced estimates of the model parameters.
