Description: Targeted maximum likelihood estimation of point treatment
        effects (Targeted Maximum Likelihood Learning, The
        International Journal of Biostatistics, 2(1), 2006.  This
        version automatically estimates the additive treatment effect
        among the treated (ATT) and among the controls (ATC).  The
        tmle() function calculates the adjusted marginal difference in
        mean outcome associated with a binary point treatment, for
        continuous or binary outcomes.  Relative risk and odds ratio
        estimates are also reported for binary outcomes. Missingness in
        the outcome is allowed, but not in treatment assignment or
        baseline covariate values.  The population mean is calculated
        when there is missingness, and no variation in the treatment
        assignment. The tmleMSM() function estimates the parameters of
        a marginal structural model for a binary point treatment
        effect. Effect estimation stratified by a binary mediating
        variable is also available. An ID argument can be used to
        identify repeated measures. Default settings call
        'SuperLearner' to estimate the Q and g portions of the
        likelihood, unless values or a user-supplied regression
        function are passed in as arguments.
