Description: Implementation of the nonparametric bounds for the average
    causal effect under an instrumental variable model by Balke and Pearl
    (Bounds on Treatment Effects from Studies with Imperfect Compliance,
    JASA, 1997, 92, 439, 1171-1176, <doi:10.2307/2965583>). The package
    can calculate bounds for a binary outcome, a binary
    treatment/phenotype, and an instrument with either 2 or 3 categories.
    The package implements bounds for situations where these 3 variables
    are measured in the same dataset (trivariate data) or where the
    outcome and instrument are measured in one study and the
    treatment/phenotype and instrument are measured in another study
    (bivariate data).
