#' Run the weighted survival regression for a set of estimation points (defined by DecYear and Log(Q))
#'
#' This function runs the survival regression which is the concentration estimation method of WRTDS. 
#' It uses sample data from the data frame Sample. 
#' It does the estimation for a set of data points defined by two vectors: estPtYear and estPtLQ. 
#' It returns an array of results for the estimation points.  
#' The array returned contains yHat, SE and ConcHat (in that order). yHat is the expected value of log(concentration), SE is 
#' the standard error of log(concentration) and ConcHat is the expected value of concentration.
#'
#' @param Sample dataframe created for EGRET analysis
#' @param estPtYear numeric vector of Decimal Year values at the estimation points
#' @param estPtLQ numeric vector of ln(Q) values at the estimation points, must be the same length as estPtYear 
#' @param windowY numeric specifying the half-window width in the time dimension, in units of years, default is 7
#' @param windowQ numeric specifying the half-window width in the discharge dimension, units are natural log units, default is 2
#' @param windowS numeric specifying the half-window with in the seasonal dimension, in units of years, default is 0.5
#' @param minNumObs numeric specifying the miniumum number of observations required to run the weighted regression, default is 100
#' @param minNumUncen numeric specifying the minimum number of uncensored observations to run the weighted regression, default is 50
#' @param verbose logical specifying whether or not to display progress message
#' @param interactive logical deprecated. Use 'verbose' instead
#' @param edgeAdjust logical specifying whether to use the modified method for calculating the windows at the edge of the record.  The modified method tends to reduce curvature near the start and end of record.  Default is TRUE.
#' @param DecLow number specifying minimum decimal year (left edge of the estimated surfaces).
#' @param DecHigh number specifying maximum decimal year (right edge of the estimated surfaces).
#' @param run.parallel logical to run bootstrapping in parallel or not
#' @keywords water-quality statistics

#' jitter Sample
#' 
#' This function is used in cases where there are numerical problems with 
#' the estimation of the WRTDS model.  This mostly happens during bootstrap 
#' estimation or when the data sets are very large.  In order to reduce the 
#' collinearity in the explanatory variables, some random noise is added to 
#' the time and log discharge variables in the Sample data frame.

#' @export
#' @return SamR a data frame structured like the Sam data frame but with
#'  the time and discharge variables modified by adding random jitter

#' @param V a multiplier for the sd of the LogQ jitter. for example V = 0.02,
#'  means that the sd of the LnQ jitter is 0.02*sdLQ
