Inefficiency term is allowed to depend on a set of determinants through heteroskedasticity. Smooth coefficients are estimated using nonparametric regression and the remaining frontier parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood. Technical efficiency and inefficiency are computed using the Battese and Coelli (1988) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(88)90053-X> and Jondrow et al. (1982) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(82)90004-5> methods, respectively. Confidence intervals for technical efficiency are computed using the approach of Horrace and Schmidt (1996) <doi:10.1007/BF00157044>.https://github.com/r-universe/kaisun84/actions/runs/36705455958Tue, 29 Sep 2026 14:20:02 GMTspscsfa0.1.0successhttps://kaisun84.r-universe.devhttps://github.com/cran/spscsfa
