title: 'UniCensor: Reproducible Random Samples Under Univariate Censoring Schemes'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Generates reproducible random samples from any user-specified univariate
  distribution under a comprehensive suite of censoring and truncation schemes. Users
  supply the probability density function (PDF), cumulative distribution function
  (CDF), survival function, support bounds, and parameters; the same seed and inputs
  yield identical samples across sessions. Supported schemes include right and left
  truncation, random, right, left, interval, and middle censoring, block random censoring,
  balanced joint progressive Type-II (BJPT-II), progressive first failure, joint Type-I,
  Type-I, Type-II, progressive Type-II, Type-II progressively hybrid, joint Type-II,
  hybrid, hybrid Type-I, doubly Type-II, Type-I hybrid, and hybrid Type-II censoring.
  Diagnostic histogram, dot plot, and autocorrelation plots are provided for each
  scheme to verify distributional behaviour. Methods are described in Nagar, Kumar,
  and Krishna (2026) <https://doi.org/10.59467/IJASS.2026.22.1>, Goel, Kumar, and
