abstract: Estimates network histograms, a blockmodel approximation to the graphon
  underlying a network's connectivity pattern, for both single-layer and multilayer
  networks. Implements graphon estimation methods including the profile-likelihood
  method of Olhede and Wolfe (2014) <https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1400374111> and
  the least-squares method of Gao, Lu, and Zhou (2015) <https://doi.org/10.1214/15-AOS1354>
  for single-layer networks, and the multilayer extension of Song and Olhede (2026)
  <https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2608.14536>.
