Description: Provides functions for the computation of functional
        elastic shape means over sets of open planar curves. The
        package is particularly suitable for settings where these
        curves are only sparsely and irregularly observed. It uses a
        novel approach for elastic shape mean estimation, where planar
        curves are treated as complex functions and a full Procrustes
        mean is estimated from the corresponding smoothed Hermitian
        covariance surface. This is combined with the methods for
        elastic mean estimation proposed in Steyer, Stöcker, Greven
        (2022) <doi:10.1111/biom.13706>. See Stöcker et. al. (2022)
        <arXiv:2203.10522> for details.
