Description: A tool for multiply imputing missing data using 'MIDAS', a
        deep learning method based on denoising autoencoder neural
        networks (see Lall and Robinson, 2022;
        <doi:10.1017/pan.2020.49>). This algorithm offers significant
        accuracy and efficiency advantages over other multiple
        imputation strategies, particularly when applied to large
        datasets with complex features. Alongside interfacing with
        'Python' to run the core algorithm, this package contains
        functions for processing data before and after model training,
        running imputation model diagnostics, generating multiple
        completed datasets, and estimating regression models on these
        datasets. For more information see Lall and Robinson (2023)
        <doi:10.18637/jss.v107.i09>. This package is deprecated in
        favor of 'rMIDAS2'; it remains available for existing workflows
        but will receive only compatibility and documentation updates.
