Examples

## Generate data.
set.seed(1986)

n <- 3000
k <- 3

X <- matrix(rnorm(n * k), ncol = k)
colnames(X) <- paste0("x", seq_len(k))

y <- exp(X[, 1]) + 2 * X[, 2] * X[, 2] > 0 + rnorm(n)

## Construct tree.
library(rpart)
tree <- rpart(y ~ ., data = data.frame(y, X))

## Extract number of leaves.
leaves_factor <- leaf_membership(tree, X)
head(leaves_factor)
