findOtherSplits

Search tool to search nodes for alternative splitting values found during
the <code>semtree</code> process. Given a particular node, competing split
values are listed assuming they also meet the criteria for a significant
splitting value as set by <code>semtree.control</code>.

SEM Trees and SEM Forests -- an extension of model-based decision
trees and forests to Structural Equation Models (SEM). SEM trees hierarchically
split empirical data into homogeneous groups each sharing similar data patterns
with respect to a SEM by recursively selecting optimal predictors of these
differences. SEM forests are an extension of SEM trees. They are ensembles of
SEM trees each built on a random sample of the original data. By aggregating
over a forest, we obtain measures of variable importance that are more robust
than measures from single trees. A description of the method was published by
Brandmaier, von Oertzen, McArdle, & Lindenberger (2013) <doi:10.1037/a0030001>
and Arnold, Voelkle, & Brandmaier (2020) <doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2020.564403>.
