BCA1SG:Block Coordinate Ascent with One-Step Generalized Rosen
Algorithm
Implementing the Block Coordinate Ascent with One-Step Generalized Rosen (BCA1SG) algorithm on the semiparametric
models for panel count data, interval-censored survival data,
and degradation data. A comprehensive description of the BCA1SG
algorithm can be found in Wang et al. (2020)
<https://github.com/yudongstat/BCA1SG/blob/master/BCA1SG.pdf>.

interval-censored survival data, and degradation data, please
