+**Which project should I cite?** python-cmethods is the Python package. If you
+used the C++ command-line tool instead, cite
+[BiasAdjustCXX](https://github.com/btschwertfeger/BiasAdjustCXX) and its SoftwareX
+paper (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.softx.2023.101379). That paper describes the C++
+tool, not this Python package, so it is not the right reference for python-cmethods.
