The development of BsplineQuantReg and BsplineQuantRegGui was supported by DeepSeek AI
(https://deepseek.com), which provided AI-assisted coding, debugging, and documentation support throughout the development process.

We extend our sincere thanks to the DeepSeek team for their advanced language model
capabilities, which helped refine the cross-language compatibility between the initial
MATLAB implementation and the subsequent R and Python versions of the method described
in Abbes (2026), as well as the Shiny interface.
