estimEAT

This function gets the estimation of the response variable and updates Pareto-coordinates and the observation index for both new nodes.

Functions are provided to determine production frontiers and technical
efficiency measures through non-parametric techniques based upon regression trees.
The package includes code for estimating radial input, output, directional and
additive measures, plotting graphical representations of the scores and the production
frontiers by means of trees, and determining rankings of importance of input variables
in the analysis. Additionally, an adaptation of Random Forest by a set of individual
Efficiency Analysis Trees for estimating technical efficiency is also included. More
