I think EELS would be similar. The selection rules for UV absorption are not equal to the cross sections relevant for electron removal. I picked the states "by hand". The agreement with agreement with experiment is very good (J. Phys. Chem. A, 2010, 114, 10997). I think there is no automatic way of doing it.
