Description: Provides smooth approximations to the L0 norm penalty for
    estimating sparse Gaussian graphical models (GGMs). Network estimation
    is performed using the Local Linear Approximation (LLA) framework
    (Fan & Li, 2001 <doi:10.1198/016214501753382273>;
    Zou & Li, 2008 <doi:10.1214/009053607000000802>) with five penalty
    functions: arctangent (Wang & Zhu, 2016 <doi:10.1155/2016/6495417>),
    EXP (Wang, Fan, & Zhu, 2018 <doi:10.1007/s10463-016-0588-3>), Gumbel,
    Log (Candes, Wakin, & Boyd, 2008 <doi:10.1007/s00041-008-9045-x>),
    and Weibull. Adaptive penalty parameters for EXP, Gumbel, and Weibull
    are estimated via maximum likelihood, and model selection uses
    information criteria including AIC, BIC, and EBIC (Extended BIC).
    Simulation functions generate multivariate normal data from GGMs with
    stochastic block model or small-world (Watts-Strogatz) network structures.
