  <dc:title>Nonparametric Varying Coefficient Spike-and-Slab Lasso</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package NVCSSL version 3.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Fits Bayesian regularized varying coefficient models with the Nonparametric Varying Coefficient Spike-and-Slab Lasso (NVC-SSL) introduced by Bai et al. (2023) &lt;https://jmlr.org/papers/volume24/20-1437/20-1437.pdf&gt;. Functions to fit frequentist penalized varying coefficients are also provided, with the option of employing the group lasso penalty of Yuan and Lin (2006) &lt;doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2005.00532.x&gt;, the group minimax concave penalty (MCP) of Breheny and Huang &lt;doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9424-2&gt;, or the group smoothly clipped absolute deviation (SCAD) penalty of Breheny and Huang (2015) &lt;doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9424-2&gt;.</dc:description>
