Research direction

Start with the approximate cross-validation section in the Stan User's Guide at the linked URL, then review the loo with rstan vignette and the corresponding ArviZ documentation. Add an example showing how to write a Stan program for use with LOO and link both resources from that section; done means the example and links are present and readable.
