#'
#' Fit the one-step Joint surrogate model for the evaluation of a canditate surrogate endpoint, 
#' with different integration methods on the random effects, using a semiparametric penalized 
#' likelihood estimation. This approach extends that of Burzykowski \code{et al.} (2001) by 
#' including in the same joint frailty model the individual-level and the trial-level random effects.
#'  
#' For the j\out{<sup>th</sup>} subject (j=1,...,n\out{<sub>i</sub>}) of the i\out{<sup>th</sup>} 
#' trial (i=1,...,G), the joint surrogate model is defined as follows:
#' 
#' {\figure{surromodel1.png}{options: width="100\%"}}
#' 
#' where,
#' \eqn{\omega}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} \out{&#126;} \eqn{N}(0,\eqn{\theta}), u\out{<sub>i</sub>} \out{&#126;} \eqn{N}(0,\eqn{\gamma}), \eqn{\omega}\out{<sub>i</sub>} \out{&#8869;} u\out{<sub>i</sub>},
#' u\out{<sub>i</sub>} \out{&#8869;} v\out{<sub>S<sub>i</sub></sub>}, u\out{<sub>i</sub>} \out{&#8869;} v\out{<sub>T<sub>i</sub></sub>}
#' 
#' and 
#' (v\out{<sub>S<sub>i</sub></sub>},v\out{<sub>T<sub>i</sub></sub>})\out{<sup>T</sup>} \out{&#126;} \eqn{N}(0,\eqn{\Sigma}\out{<sub>v</sub>})

#' with
#' 
#' {\figure{surromodel2.png}{options: width="100\%"}}
#' 
#' In this model, \eqn{\lambda}\out{<sub>0s</sub>}(t) is the baseline hazard function associated with the 
#' surrogate endpoint and \eqn{\beta}\out{<sub>S</sub>} the fixed treatment effect (or log-hazard ratio); 
#' \eqn{\lambda}\out{<sub>0T</sub>}(t) is the baseline hazard function associated with the true endpoint 
#' and \eqn{\beta}\out{<sub>T</sub>} the fixed treatment effect. \eqn{\omega}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} is a shared individual-level frailty that serve to take into account the 
#' heterogeneity in the data at the individual level; u\out{<sub>i</sub>} is a shared frailty effect associated 
#' with the baseline hazard function that serve to take into account the heterogeneity between trials 
#' of the baseline hazard function, associated with the fact that we have several trials in this 
#' meta-analytical design. The power parameters \eqn{\zeta} and \eqn{\alpha} distinguish 
#' both individual and trial-level heterogeneities between the surrogate and the true endpoint. 
#' v\out{<sub>S<sub>i</sub></sub>} and v\out{<sub>T<sub>i</sub></sub>} are two correlated random effects treatment-by-trial interactions. 
#' \eqn{Z}\out{<sub>ij1</sub>} represents the treatment arm to which the patient has been randomized.
#' 
#' \bold{Surrogacy evaluation}
#'
#' We proposed new definitions of Kendall's \eqn{\tau} and coefficient of determination as 
#' individual-level and trial-level association measurements, to evaluate a candidate 
#' surrogate endpoint (Sofeu \emph{et al.}, 2018). The formulations are given below.
#' 
#' \bold{Individual-level surrogacy}
#' 
#' To measure the strength of association between \eqn{S}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} and \eqn{T}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} after 
#' adjusting the marginal distributions for the trial and the treatment effects, as show in 
#' Sofeu \emph{et al.}(2018), we use the Kendall's \eqn{\tau} define by :
#' 
#' {\figure{surromodel3.png}{options: width="100\%"}}
#'        
#'  
#'  where \eqn{\theta}, \eqn{\zeta}, \eqn{\alpha} and \eqn{\gamma} are estimated using the joint surrogate model
#'  defined previously. Kendall's \eqn{\tau} is the difference between the probability of 
#'  concordance and the probability of discordance of two realizations of \eqn{S}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} and \eqn{T}\out{<sub>ij</sub>}. 
#'  It belongs to the interval [-1,1] and assumes a zero value when \eqn{S}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} and \eqn{T}\out{<sub>ij</sub>} are 
#'  independent. We estimate Kendall's \eqn{\tau} using Monte-Carlo or Gaussian Hermite
#'  quadrature integration methods. Its confidence interval is estimated using parametric 
#'  bootstrap
#'  
#'  \bold{Trial-level surrogacy}
#'  
#'  The key motivation for validating a surrogate endpoint is to be able to predict the effect 
#'  of treatment on the true endpoint, based on the observed effect of treatment on the 
#'  surrogate endpoint. As shown by Buyse \emph{et al.} (2000), the coefficenient of 
#'  determination obtains from the covariance matrix \eqn{\Sigma}\out{<sub>v</sub>} of the random effects 
#'  treatment-by-trial interaction can be used to evaluate underlined prediction, and 
#'  therefore as surrogacy evaluation measurement at trial-level. It is defined by: 
#'

#'  The SEs of \eqn{R}\out{<sub>trial</sub>}\out{<sup>2</sup>} is calculated using the Delta-method. We also propose 
#'  \eqn{R}\out{<sub>trial</sub>}\out{<sup>2</sup>} and 95\% CI computed using the parametric bootstrap. The use of delta-method 
#'  can lead to confidence limits violating the [0,1], as noted by

#' @details{
#' The estimated parameter are obtained using the robust Marquardt algorithm
#' (Marquardt, 1963) which is a combination between a Newton-Raphson algorithm
#' and a steepest descent algorithm. The iterations are stopped when the
#' difference between two consecutive log-likelihoods was small
#' (<
#' \if{html}{10\out{<sup>-3</sup>}} \if{latex}{\eqn{10^{-3}}}), the estimated 
#' coefficients were stable (consecutive
#' values (< \if{html}{10\out{<sup>-3</sup>}} \if{latex}{\eqn{10^{-3}}})), and the gradient 
#' small enough (< \if{html}{10\out{<sup>-3</sup>}} \if{latex}{\eqn{10^{-3}}}), by default.
#' Cubic M-splines of order 4 are used for the hazard function, and I-splines (integrated M-splines) are
#' used for the cumulative hazard function.
#' 
#' The inverse of the Hessian matrix is the variance estimator and to deal
#' with the positivity constraint of the variance component and the spline
#' coefficients, a squared transformation is used and the standard errors are
#' computed by the \eqn{\Delta}-method (Knight & Xekalaki, 2000). The smooth
#' parameter can be chosen by maximizing a likelihood cross validation
#' criterion (Joly and other, 1998). 
#' 
#' We proposed based on the joint surrogate model a new definition 
#' of the Kendall's \eqn{\tau}. Moreover, distinct numerical integration methods are available to approximate the 
#' integrals in the marginal log-likelihood.
#' 
#' \bold{Non-convergence case management procedure}
#' 
#' Special attention must be given to initializing model parameters, the choice of the number of 
#' spline knots, the smoothing parameters and the number of quadrature points to solve convergence 
#' issues. We first initialized parameters using the user's desired strategy, as specified 
#' by the option \code{true.init.val}. When numerical or convergence problems are encountered, 
#' with \code{kappa.use} set to \code{4}, the model is fitted again using a combination of the following strategies: 
#' vary the number of quadrature point (\code{nb.gh} to \code{nb.gh2} or \code{nb.gh2} to \code{nb.gh})
#' in the event of the use of the Gaussian Hermite quadrature integration (see \code{int.method}); 
#' divided or multiplied the smoothing parameters (\if{latex}{\code{k_1}} \if{html}{k\out{<sub>1</sub>}}, 
#' \if{latex}{\code{k_2}} \if{html}{k\out{<sub>2</sub>}}) by 10 or 100 according to 
#' their preceding values, or used parameter vectors obtained during the last iteration (with a 
#' modification of the number of quadrature points and smoothing parameters). Using this strategy, 
#' we usually obtained during simulation the rejection rate less than 3\%. A sensitivity analysis 
#' was conducted without this strategy, and similar results were obtained on the converged samples, 
#' with about a 23\% rejection rate.

#' The default is \code{4}.

#' The default is \code{0}. Required if \code{random.generator} is set to 1.
#' @param random.nb.sim If \code{random} is set to \code{1}, a binary that indicates the number

#' The default is \code{0}.
#' @param init.kappa smoothing parameter used to penalized the log-likelihood. By default (init.kappa = NULL) the values used 
#' are obtain by cross-validation.
#' @param ckappa Vector of two fixed values to add to the smoothing parameters. By default it is set to (0,0). this argument allows
#' to well manage the smoothing parameters in the event of convergence issues.
#' @param nb.decimal Number of decimal required for results presentation.
