Title: Fast Approximation of Time-Varying Infectious Disease
        Transmission Rates
Description: A fast method for approximating time-varying infectious
        disease transmission rates from disease incidence time series
        and other data, based on a discrete time approximation of an
        SEIR model, as analyzed in Jagan et al. (2020)
        <doi:10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008124>.
