Description: Implements Lagrangian multiplier smoothing splines for flexible
    nonparametric regression and function estimation. Provides tools for fitting,
    prediction, and inference using a constrained optimization approach to 
    enforce smoothness.
    Supports generalized linear models, Weibull accelerated failure time (AFT) models, 
    quadratic programming problems, and customizable arbitrary correlation structures. 
    Options for fitting in parallel are provided. The method builds upon the framework described 
    by Ezhov et al. (2018) <doi:10.1515/jag-2017-0029> using Lagrangian multipliers 
    to fit cubic splines. For more information on correlation structure estimation, 
    see Searle et al. (2009) <ISBN:978-0470009598>. For quadratic programming and 
    constrained optimization in general, see Nocedal & Wright (2006) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-40065-5>.
