PublicationBiasBenchmark: Benchmark for Publication Bias Correction Methods

Implements a unified interface for benchmarking meta-analytic publication bias correction methods through simulation studies (see Bartoš et al., 2022, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2510.19489>). It provides 1) predefined data-generating mechanisms from the literature, 2) functions for running meta-analytic methods on simulated data, 3) pre-simulated datasets and pre-computed results for reproducible benchmarks, 4) tools for visualizing and comparing method performance.
