		Weibull Shape Parameter Tests for Signal Detection //
		Implementation of Bayesian and frequentist Weibull Shape
		Parameter (WSP) tests for signal detection in pharmacovigilance
		based on right-censored time-to-event data to flag associations
		between drugs and adverse events. The WSP test is based on the
		assumption of constant hazard reflected by a Weibull type
		distribution with shape parameters equal to one. Based on the
		shape parameter estimates (posterior distribution or point
		estimate), the WSP test method performs a hypothesis test on
		each shape parameter and combines them to a decision on the
		presence of a signal. Methods described in Sauzet and Cornelius
		(2022) doi:10.3389/fphar.2022.889088, Sauzet et al. (2024)
		doi:10.1007/s40264-024-01460-2, and Dyck and Sauzet (2025)
