In this chapter methods of handling missing attribute values in data mining are described. These methods are categorized into sequential and parallel. In sequential methods, missing attribute values are replaced by known values first, as a preprocessing, then the knowledge is acquired for a data set with all known attribute values. In parallel methods, there is no preprocessing, i.e., knowledge...

Attribute value types play an important role in mostly every datamining task. Most learners, for instance, are restricted to particular value types. The usage of such learners is just possible after special forms of preprocessing. RapidMiner most commonly distinguishes between nominal and numerical values which are well-known to every RapidMineruser. Although, covering a great fraction of attri...
