Description: Bayesian regularized quantile regression utilizing sparse priors to 
    promote exact sparsity leads to efficient Bayesian shrinkage estimation, variable 
    selection and statistical inference. In this package, we have implemented robust
    Bayesian variable selection with spike-and-slab priors under high-dimensional
    linear regression models (Fan et al. (2024) <doi:10.3390/e26090794> and  
    Ren et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/biom.13670>), and regularized quantile varying
    coefficient models (Zhou et al.(2023) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2023.107808>). In particular, 
    valid robust Bayesian inferences under both models in the presence of heavy-tailed errors
    can be validated on finite samples. Additional models with spike-and-slab priors include 
    robust Bayesian group LASSO and robust binary Bayesian LASSO (Fan and Wu (2025) 
    <doi:10.1002/sta4.70078>). The Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms
    of the proposed and alternative models are implemented in C++.
