Description: Implements a two-stage estimation approach for Cox 
    regression using five-parameter M-spline functions to model the baseline hazard. It allows
    for flexible hazard shapes and model selection based on log-likelihood criteria as described in
    Teranishi et al.(2025).
    In addition, the package provides functions for constructing and evaluating B-spline copulas 
    based on five M-spline or I-spline basis functions, allowing users to flexibly model and 
    compute bivariate dependence structures. Both the copula function and its density can be evaluated.
