Table of performance of an uplift model. This table is used in order to vizualise the performance of an uplift model and to compute the qini coefficient.

1 2	PerformanceUplift(data, treat, outcome, prediction, nb.group = 10, equal.intervals = TRUE, rank.precision = 2)

`data`	a data frame containing the response, the treatment and predicted uplift.
`treat`	a binary (numeric) vector representing the treatment assignment (coded as 0/1).
`outcome`	a binary response (numeric) vector (coded as 0/1).
`prediction`	a predicted uplift (numeric) vector to sort the observations from highest to lowest uplift.
`nb.group`	if equal.intervals is set to true, the number of groups of equal observations in which to partition the data set to show results.
`equal.intervals`	flag for using equal intervals (with equal number of observations) or the true ranking quantiles which result in an unequal number of observations in each group.
`rank.precision`	precision for the ranking quantiles. Must be 1 or 2. If 1, the ranking quantiles will be rounded to the first decimal. If 2, to the second decimal.

a table with descriptive statistics related to an uplift model estimator.
