Survey on the rural living indicators was the statistic approved from National Statistical Office and the survey executed by rural resources development institute. This study was used the raw data of survey on the rural living indicators in 2005. After editing procedure for raw data, we were studied 1,582 households which is acquired through elimination of case included nonresponses, and imputed a nonresponses of 15 item selected from 146 item. The imputation methods and efficiency of imputation for simulation was adapted differently from type of data. For continuous data, we imputed the nonresponses with mean imputation, regression imputation, adjusted grey-based k-NN imputation(DU, DW, WU, WW) and compared the results with RMSE. For categorical data, we imputed the nonresponses with mode method, probability imputation, conditional mode method, conditional probability method, hot-deck imputation, and compared the results with Accuracy. By the results, regression imputation and adjusted grey-based k-NN imputation appropriated for continuous data and hot-deck imputation appropriated for categorical data.

This paper suggests a new method of compensating for wave nonresponse in panel survey, which combines weighting adjustment and imputation. By deleting less frequent nonresponse patterns, we can get simplicity. A new mean estimator under the new combining method is provided and a limited simulation study employing a real data is conducted.

When we analyze incomplete data, i.e., data with missing values, we need treatment for the missing values. A common way to deal with this problem is to delete the cases with missing values. Various other methods have been developed. Among them are EM algorithm and regression algorithm which can estimate missing values and impute the missing elements with the estimated values. In this paper, we introduce multiple imputation software SOLAS which generates multiple data sets and imputes with them.

Imputation procedures fill-in missing values, thereby enabling complete data analyses. Fully efficient fractional imputation (FEFI) and multiple imputation (MI) create multiple versions of the missing observations, thereby reflecting uncertainty about their true values. Methods have been described for hypothesis testing with multiple imputation. Fractional imputation assigns weights to the observed data to compensate for missing values. The focus of this article is the development of tests of independence using FEFI for partially classified two-way contingency tables. Wald and deviance tests of independence under FEFI are proposed. Simulations are used to compare type I error rates and Power. The partially observed marginal information is useful for estimating the joint distribution of cell probabilities, but it is not useful for testing association. FEFI compares favorably to other methods in simulations.

The statistical analysis of incomplete data sometimes requires handling of incomplete observations. Towards this end, each case with some missing values generally should be deleted, namely, resulting in only use of non-missing cases. EM algorithm(Dempster et al., 1977) which involves prediction and estimation steps is a general method among others. In this article, we use the free software NORM developed for multiple imputation, which uses DA(Data Augmentation) algorithm in its imputation, and evaluate its efficiency through a numerical example.

We compare various imputation methods for compensating wave nonresponse that are commonly adopted in many panel surveys. Unlike the cross-sectional survey, the panel survey is involved a time-effect in nonresponse in a sense that nonresponse may happen for some but not all waves. Thus, responses in neighboring waves can be used as powerful predictors for imputing wave nonresponse such as in longitudinal regression imputation, carry-over imputation, nearest neighborhood regression imputation and row-column imputation method. For comparison, we carry out a simulation study on a few income data from the Korean Welfare Panel Study based on two performance criteria: predictive accuracy and estimation accuracy. Our simulation shows that the ratio and row-column imputation methods are much more effective in terms of both criteria. Regression, longitudinal regression and carry-over imputation methods performed better in predictive accuracy, but less in estimation accuracy. On the other hand, nearest neighborhood, nearest neighbor regression and hot-deck imputation show higher performance in estimation accuracy but lower predictive accuracy. Finally, the mean imputation shows much lower performance in both criteria.

When conducting a survey, item nonresponse occurs if the respondent does not respond to some items. Since analysis based only on completely observed data may cause biased results, imputation is often conducted to analyze data in its complete form. The panel study is a survey method that examines changes of responses over time. In panel studies, there has been a preference for using information from response values of previous waves when the imputation of item nonresponses is performed; however, limited research has been conducted to support this preference. Therefore, this study compares the performance of imputation methods according to whether or not information from previous waves is utilized in the panel study. Among imputation methods that utilize information from previous responses, we consider ratio imputation, imputation based on the linear mixed model, and imputation based on the Bayesian linear mixed model approach. We compare the results from these methods against the results of methods that do not use information from previous responses, such as mean imputation and hot deck imputation. Simulation results show that imputation based on the Bayesian linear mixed model performs best and yields small biases and high coverage rates of the 95% confidence interval even at higher nonresponse rates.

최근 기후변화로 인한 집중호우, 가뭄 등 예측하기 어려운 사태가 발생하면서 깨끗하고 안정적인 용수공급 기술의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이에 IoT와 기존 물관리시스템을 결합한 스마트워터그리드 출범은 실시간으로 수요와 공급량의 정보를 취득하여 물 관리 효율성을 제고 할 수 있게 되었다. 실시간 수요량 자료를 이용하여 물 수요량 예측을 통한 최적의 물 공급량을 결정할 수 있다. 이 때 스마트워터그리드의 핵심 기술은 실시간으로 취득한 자료의 품질관리라 할 수 있다. 본 연구 대상지역인 영종도 112 블록에는 528개 AMI 스마트 미터를 이용하여 1시간 단위의 물 수요량 자료를 원격 검침하고 있다. 각 수용가에 설치된 AMI 센서를 통해 수집된 자료에는 오류를 포함할 수 있는데 통신 장애, 미터기 고장 및 교체 등으로 발생된다. 결측된 수요량 자료는 상수관망 수리해석에 사용되는 기본자료로서 비표본오차를 증가시켜 검정력과 정확성을 결여시키는 문제가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수집된 자료를 가용할 수 있는 자료로 정제하고 대체하기 위해 완전히 관찰된 자료(complete data)만을 이용하여 각 시간에 따른 관경별, 용도별 그리고 요일별 수요패턴을 추정한다. 결측된 자료는 기존에 사용되는 평균대체법과 핫덱 대체(hot deck imputation) 등과 비교 검증한다.
