In this paper, we propose a Sequential Adaptive Nearest Neighbor(SANN) imputation method that combines the Adaptive Nearest Neighbor(ANN) method and the Sequential k-Nearest Neighbor(SKNN) method. When choosing the nearest neighbors of missing observations, the proposed SANN method takes the local feature of the missing observations into account as well as reutilizes the imputed observations in a sequential manner. By using a Monte Carlo study and a real data example, we demonstrate the characteristics of the SANN method and its potential performance.

Missing data is one of the common problems in building analysis or prediction models using software project data. Missing imputation methods are known to be more effective missing data handling method than deleting methods in small software project data. While K nearest neighbor imputation is a proper missing imputation method in the software project data, it cannot use non-missing information of incomplete project instances. In this paper, we propose an approach to missing data imputation for numerical software project data by combining K nearest neighbor and maximum likelihood estimation; we also extend the average absolute error measure by normalization for accurate evaluation. Our approach overcomes the limitation of K nearest neighbor imputation and outperforms on our real data sets.

Widely used among the various single imputation methods is k-nearest neighbors (KNN) imputation due to its robustness even when a parametric model such as multivariate normality is not satisfied. We propose a weighted adaptive nearest neighbors imputation method that combines the adaptive nearest neighbors imputation method that accounts for the local features of the data in the KNN imputation method and weighted k-nearest neighbors method that are less sensitive to extreme value or outlier among k-nearest neighbors. We conducted a Monte Carlo simulation study to compare the performance of the proposed imputation method with previous imputation methods.

In this paper, wc propose a now missing imputation method for minimizing loss of information linkage disequilibrium-based and haplotype-based imputation method, which estimate missing values of the data based on the specificity of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism(SNP) genotype data. Method for imputing data is needed to minimize the loss of information caused by experimental missing data. In general, missing imputation of biological data has used major allele imputation method. but this approach is not optima]. 1'his method has high error rates of missing values estimation since the characteristics of the genotype data are not considered not take into consideration the specific structure of the data. In this paper, we show the results of the comparative evaluation of our model methods and major imputation method for the estimation of missing values.

A conventional missing value problem in the statistical analysis k-Nearest Neighbor(KNN) method are used for a simple imputation method. When one of the k-nearest neighbors is an extreme value or outlier, the KNN method can create a bias. In this paper, we propose a Weighted k-Nearest Neighbors(WKNN) imputation method that can supplement KNN's faults. A Monte-Carlo simulation study is also adapted to compare the WKNN method and KNN method using real data set.

The Weighted Logrank test and its special case, Logrank test are widely used to compare survival distributions; however, these methods are inappropriate when the sample size is small or censoring distributions are not equal since they use test statistics from approximate distributions. A permutation test can be an alternative for small sample cases; however, this should be used only when censoring distributions are equal. To handle cases with small sample size and unequal censoring distributions, the permutation-imputation method was developed to compare two survival distributions. In this paper, approximate method, permutation method and permutation-imputation method were compared using a Logrank test and Prentice-Wilcoxon test for three or more survival distributions comparison.

This study reviewed the parameter estimation procedure of the Freund bivariate exponential distribution for the decision of the annual maximum rainfall event. The method of moments was reviewed first, whose results were compared with those from the method of maximum likelihood. Both methods were applied to the hourly rainfall data of the Seoul rain gauge station measured from 1961 to 2010 to select the annual maximum rainfall events, which were also compared each other. The results derived are as follows. First, when applying the method of moments for the parameter estimation, it was found necessary to consider the correlation coefficient between the two variables as well as the mean and variance. Second, the method of maximum likelihood was better to reproduce the mean, but the method of moments was better to reproduce the annual variation of the variance. Third, The annual maximum rainfall events derived were very similar in both cases. Among differently selected annual maximum rainfall events, those with the higher rainfall amount were selected by the method of maximum likelihood, but those with the higher rainfall intensity by the method of moments.

불완전 데이터 즉, 결측값을 가지는 데이터를 분석할 경우 결측데이터에 대해서 어떠한 처리를 해야할 필요가 있다. 결측데이터에 대한 처리로서 주로 이용되어온 방법으로는 결측값을 포함한 관측값(case)을 제외하는 방법이었다. 이후 여러 방법들이 제안되어 EM알고리즘이나 회귀알고리즘에 의한 추정을 바탕으로 결측값에 대한 추정을 해서 그 추정값으로 결측값을 대치하는 방법을 사용할 수 있게되었다. 본 논문에서는 복수 개의 데이터세트를 생성해서 대치하는 다중대입 소프트인 SOLAS를 소개한다.
