find_triplet

A function to find the best triplets of parent, moderator, and split point.

internal

Meta-CART integrates classification and regression trees (CART) into meta-analysis. Meta-CART is a flexible approach to identify interaction effects between moderators in meta-analysis. The method is described in Dusseldorp et al. (2014) <doi:10.1037/hea0000018> and Li et al. (2017) <doi:10.1111/bmsp.12088>.
