BayesFBHborrow: Bayesian Dynamic Borrowing with Flexible Baseline Hazard Function

Allows Bayesian borrowing from a historical dataset for time-to- event data. A flexible baseline hazard function is achieved via a piecewise exponential likelihood with time varying split points and smoothing prior on the historic baseline hazards. The method is described in Scott and Lewin (2026) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxag006>, and a paper focused on the software is in Scott, Axillus, Lewin and Izmirlian (2026) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2408.04327>.
