Description: Adversarial random forests (ARFs) recursively partition data
    into fully factorized leaves, where features are jointly independent.
    The procedure is iterative, with alternating rounds of generation and
    discrimination. Data becomes increasingly realistic at each round,
    until original and synthetic samples can no longer be reliably
    distinguished.  This is useful for several unsupervised learning
    tasks, such as density estimation and data synthesis. Methods for both
    are implemented in this package. ARFs naturally handle unstructured
    data with mixed continuous and categorical covariates. They inherit
    many of the benefits of random forests, including speed, flexibility,
    and solid performance with default parameters.  For details, see
    Watson et al. (2023)
