자료의 독립성 가청 하에서 EM 알고리즘에 의한 경측치 대체 (imputation of missing values) 기법은 잘 알려져 있다. 그러나 공간자료를 다루는 응용문제에서는 독립성 가정이 확장된 마코프 랜덤 필드 (Markov random field; MRF) 하에서 다루어져야 할 것이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 마코프 랜덤 필드 모형 궁에서 다변량 자료 중에 다중의 결측치의 대체를 위한 EM 알고리즘을 제공한다. 이 기법은 몇 가지 현실척 가정하에서 결국 혼합모형에 의한 대체 기법 임을 보인다. 그리고 제공된 기법으로 3-변량으로 구성된 색조영상(color image)의 결측화소값 대체문제에 적용하여 그 유용성과 문제점을 밝히며, 문제정의 개선방안에 대해 논의한다.

Missing continuous covariates are pervasive in the use of generalized linear models for medical data. Multiple imputation is the most common and easy-to-do method of dealing with missing covariate data. However, there are always serious warnings in using this method. There should be concern to make imputed values more proper. In this paper, proper imputation from posterior predictive distribution is developed for implementing with arbitrary priors. We use empirical distribution of the posterior for approximating the posterior predictive distribution, to sample from it. This method is preferable in comparison with a presented imputation method of us which uses a full model to impute missing values using available software. The proposed methods are implemented on glucocorticoid data.

We proposed the research on an analysis and prediction model that allows the identification of outliers or abnormality in the data followed by effective and rapid imputation of missing values was conducted. This model is expected to analyze efficiently the problems in the data based on the calibrated raw data. As a result, a system that can adequately utilize the data was constructed by using the introduced KNN + MLE algorithm. With this algorithm, the problems in some of the existing KNN-based missing data imputation algorithms such as ignoring the missing values in some data sections or discarding normal observations were effectively addressed. A comparative evaluation was performed between the existing imputation approaches such as K-means, KNN, MEI, and MI as well as the data missing mechanisms including MCAR, MAR, and NI to check the effectiveness/efficiency of the proposed algorithm, and its superiority in all aspects was confirmed.

본 논문에서는 단일염기변이(SNP: Single Nucleotide Polymorphism)와 같은 유전형(Rcnotype)자료에서 결측치가 발생하였을 경우 유전형 자료의 특이성을 고려해 자료 원래의 정보손실을 최소화하는 대치법인 연관불균형 기반의 대치법(linkage disequilibrium- based imputation)과 일배체형 기반의 대치법(haplotype-based imputation)을 제시한다. 이러한 결측치 대치는 실험상에서 발생하는 결측치에 의한 중요한 정보의 손실을 최소화 한다는 점에서 필요한 방법이다. 일반적으로 그동안 생물학 자료의 결측치 대치는 대부분 주형질 대치법(major allele imputation)이 활용되어왔는데 유전형 자료에서의 이 방법의 사용은 사료의 특이성으로 인하여 결측치에 대한 높은 오차율(error rate)을 보임으로서 자료의 신뢰성을 떨어뜨릴 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 유전형 자료인 단일염기변이 자료의 시뮬레이션을 통하여 기존의 주형질 대치법과 논문에서 제안된 연관불균형 기반의 대치법과 일배체형 기반의 대치법을 비교하고 그 결과를 보여 준다.

무응답 및 결측값은 표본 탈락, 설문조사에 대한 답변 회피 등으로 발생하며 정보의 손실 및 편향된 추론의 가능성이 있는 문제가 발생하게 되며, 이 경우 결측값을 적절한 값으로 바꾸는 대체가 필요하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 결측값에 대한 대체 방법으로 제안되었던 평균 대체, 다중회귀 대체, 랜덤 포레스트 대체, K-최근접 이웃 대체, 그리고 딥러닝을 기본으로 한 오토인코더 대체와 잡음제거 오토인코더 대체 방법을 비교한다. 결측값을 대체하는 이러한 방법들에 대해 설명하고, 연속형의 모의실험 데이터와 실제 데이터에 접목시켜 각 방법들을 비교하였다. 비교 결과 대부분의 경우에서 다중 대체 방법인 랜덤 포레스트 대체 방법과 잡음제거 오토인코더 대체 방법의 성능이 좋았음을 확인하였다.

Biplots are the multivariate analogue of scatter plots. They are useful for giving a graphical description of the data matrix, for detecting patterns and for displaying results found by more formal methods of analysis. Nevertheless, when some values are missing in data matrix, most biplots are not directly applicable. In particular, we are interested in the shape variability of principal component biplot which is the most popular in biplots with missing values. For this, we estimate the missing data using the EM algorithm and mean imputation according to missing rates. Even though we estimate missing values of biplot of incomplete data, we have different shapes of biplots according to the imputation methods and missing rates. Therefore we propose a RMS(root mean square) for measuring and comparing the shape variability between the original biplots and the estimated biplots.

Collaborative filtering is one of the methodologies that are most widely used for recommendation system. It is based on a data matrix of each customer's preferences of products. There could be a lot of missing values in such preference. data matrix. This incomplete data is one of the reasons to deteriorate the accuracy of recommendation system. Multiple imputation method imputes m values for each missing value. It overcomes flaws of single imputation approaches through considering the uncertainty of missing values.. The objective of this paper is to suggest multiple imputation-based collaborative filtering approach for recommendation system to improve the accuracy in prediction performance. The experimental works show that the proposed approach provides better performance than the traditional Collaborative filtering approach, especially in case that there are a lot of missing values in dataset used for recommendation system.

Datasets from DNA microarray experiments, which are in the form of large matrices of expression levels of genes, often have missing values. However, the existing statistical methods including the principle components analysis (PCA) and Hotelling's t-test are not directly applicable for the datasets having missing values due to the fact that they assume the observed dataset is complete in general. Many methods have been proposed in previous literature to impute the missing in the observed data. Troyanskaya et al. [1] study the k-nearest neighbor (kNN) imputation, Kim et al. [2] propose the local least squares (LLS) method and Rubin [3] propose the multiple imputation (MI) for missing values. To identify differentially expressed genes, we propose a new testing procedure when the missing exists in the observed data. The proposed procedure uses the Stouffer's z-scores and combines the test results of individual imputed samples, which are dependent to each other. We numerically show that the proposed test procedure based on MI performs better than the existing test procedures based on single imputation (SI) by comparing their ROC curves. We apply the proposed method to analyzing a public microarray data.

It is so difficult to get complete data when we conduct a questionaire in actuality. And we get inefficient results if we analyze statistical tests with ignoring missing values. Therefore, we use imputation methods which evaluate quality of data. This study proposes a imputation method by decomposition and voting with ordinal data. First, data are sorted by each variable. After that, imputation methods are used by each decomposition level. And the last step is selection of values with voting. The proposed method is evaluated by accuracy and RMSE. In conclusion, missing values are related to each variable, median imputation method using decomposition and voting is powerful.

Collaborative filtering is one of the methodologies that are most widely used for recommendation system. It is based on a data matrix of each customer's preferences of products. There could be a lot of missing values in such preference data matrix. This incomplete data is one of the reasons to deteriorate the accuracy of recommendation system. There are several treatments to deal with the incomplete data problem such as case deletion and single imputation. Those approaches are simple and easy to implement but they may provide biased results. Multiple imputation method imputes m values for each missing value. It overcomes flaws of single imputation approaches through considering the uncertainty of missing values. The objective of this paper is to suggest multiple imputation-based collaborative filtering approach for recommendation system to improve the accuracy in prediction performance. The experimental works show that the proposed approach provides better performance than the traditional Collaborative filtering approach, especially in case that there are a lot of missing values in dataset used for recommendation system.
