NVCSSL: Nonparametric Varying Coefficient Spike-and-Slab Lasso

Fits Bayesian regularized varying coefficient models with the Nonparametric Varying Coefficient Spike-and-Slab Lasso (NVC-SSL) introduced by Bai et al. (2023) <https://jmlr.org/papers/volume24/20-1437/20-1437.pdf>. Functions to fit frequentist penalized varying coefficients are also provided, with the option of employing the group lasso penalty of Yuan and Lin (2006) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2005.00532.x>, the group minimax concave penalty (MCP) of Breheny and Huang <doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9424-2>, or the group smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty of Breheny and Huang (2015) <doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9424-2>.
