irtbem2pl: Marginalized Bayesian Item Parameter Estimation, 2pl Model IRT

Estimates item parameters of the two-parameter logistic (2PL) model in Item Response Theory (IRT) using the marginal Bayesian modal estimation via the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm. The package calibrates item discrimination and difficulty parameters, yielding results comparable to software like 'BILOG-MG'.
