Description: Implements the Elliptical Covering Marginal Likelihood Estimator
    (ECMLE), a geometric method for approximating marginal likelihood from
    posterior draws and log-posterior evaluations. The method constructs a
    collection of non-overlapping ellipsoids in a high-posterior-density
    region, computes the covered volume, and combines this with posterior
    sample coverage to estimate model evidence. It is designed to stabilize
    harmonic-mean-based evidence approximation and can be applied in
    multimodal settings. The methodology is described in Naderi et al. (2025)
    <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2510.20617>.
