你这里有几件事

1. R代码中的tau是0：11，但python代码中的tau等效于0:10
   1.你在python代码中生成了B样条，但在R代码中使用了ns()。
   我发现我可以使用dmatrix来复制mgcv包估计的基础。
   举例来说：

mgcv::smoothCon(mgcv::s(tau, bs="cr", k=5), data=data.frame(tau=tau))[[1]]$X

我最近也在处理类似的问题，所以我通过检查R的ns()和patsy的bs()编写了自己的ns()。下面是Python代码：

import numpy as np
from scipy.interpolate import splev

def ns(x, df=None, knots=None, boundary_knots=None, include_intercept=False):
    degree = 3
    if boundary_knots is None:
        boundary_knots = [np.min(x), np.max(x)]

    if df is not None:
        nIknots = df - 1 - include_intercept
        if nIknots < 0:
            nIknots = 0
            
        if nIknots > 0:
            knots = np.linspace(0, 1, num=nIknots + 2)[1:-1]
            knots = np.quantile(x, knots)

    Aknots = np.sort(np.concatenate((boundary_knots * 4, knots)))
    n_bases = len(Aknots) - (degree + 1)
    
    basis = np.empty((x.shape[0], n_bases), dtype=float)
    for i in range(n_bases):
        coefs = np.zeros((n_bases,))
        coefs[i] = 1
        basis[:, i] = splev(x, (Aknots, coefs, degree))

    const = np.empty((2, n_bases), dtype=float)
    for i in range(n_bases):
        coefs = np.zeros((n_bases,))
        coefs[i] = 1
        const[:, i] = splev(boundary_knots, (Aknots, coefs, degree), der=2)

    if include_intercept is False:
        basis = basis[:, 1:]
        const = const[:, 1:]

    qr_const = np.linalg.qr(const.T, mode='complete')[0]
    basis = (qr_const.T @ basis.T).T[:, 2:]

    return basis

运行您的示例：

min = 0
max = 10
tau = np.arange(min, max + 1)
pDegree = 5
# try one
spline_basis = ns(tau, df=pDegree, include_intercept=True)
print(spline_basis)
# try two
spline_basis = ns(tau, df=pDegree, include_intercept=False)
print(spline_basis)

与R的输出匹配。
请注意，R的ns()包含了很多我没有实现的特定于情况的处理。因此，使用风险自担。
