 **⚠️ Note on Installation Time:**
 The installation process builds the package vignettes, which involve running **bootstrap procedures** to reproduce the examples from the article. 
 **This process may take several minutes.**
 Please note that while the original simulation study utilized high-performance parallel computing (8+ cores), the package vignettes are restricted to run on **1 core** to ensure compatibility across all systems, even though the code supports parallelization.
