Description: High-performance parameter estimation, uncertainty
        quantification, and inverse modelling toolkit built on
        modernised PEST++ algorithms. Provides native R interfaces to
        iterative ensemble smoothers (IES), Gauss-Levenberg-Marquardt
        (GLM) solvers, global sensitivity analysis, and multi-objective
        optimisation under uncertainty. Includes surrogate-accelerated
        IES via Gaussian Process and Random Fourier Features, adaptive
        SVD backends (randomised SVD, LAPACK, Eigen), and
        convergence-aware adaptive ensemble sizing. Designed for
        large-scale environmental, hydrological, and agricultural
        models with support for highly-parameterised problems (>100,000
        parameters). The toolkit is model-independent -- any R function
        can serve as the forward model -- with first-class in-process
        coupling to the APSIM agricultural-systems model via the
        'apsimx' package as its flagship simulator partner.
