  <dc:title>Robust Estimation of Stochastic Frontier Models with MDPDE</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package robustSFA version 0.2.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>This provides a robust estimator for stochastic frontier models, employing the Minimum Density Power Divergence Estimator (MDPDE) for enhanced robustness against outliers. Additionally, it includes a function to recommend the optimal tuning parameter, alpha, which controls the robustness of the MDPDE. The methods implemented in this package are based on Song et al. (2017) &lt;doi:10.1016/j.csda.2016.08.005&gt;.</dc:description>
