Maximum Likelihood Estimation of the Niche Preemption Model

Provides functions for obtaining estimates of the parameter of the niche preemption model (also known as the geometric series), in particular a maximum likelihood estimator (Graffelman, 2021) <doi:10.1101/2021.01.27.428381>. The niche preemption model is a widely used model in ecology and biodiversity studies.
