Finite sample properties of multiple imputation estimators
Finite sample properties of multiple imputation estimators under the linear regression model are studied. The exact bias of the multiple imputation variance estimator is presented. A method of reducing the bias is presented and simulation is used to make comparisons. We also show that the suggested method can be used for a general class of linear estimators. 1. Introduction. Multiple imputation...
متن کاملA note on approximate Bayesian bootstrap imputation
The approximate Bayesian bootstrap is suggested by Rubin & Schenker (1986) as a way of generating multiple imputations when the original sample can be regarded as independently and identically distributed and the response mechanism is ignorable. We investigate the finite sample properties of the variance estimator when the approximate Bayesian bootstrap method is used and show that the bias is ...
متن کاملAn Empirical Comparison of Performance of the Unified Approach to Linearization of Variance Estimation after Imputation with Some Other Methods
Imputation is one of the most common methods to reduce item non_response effects. Imputation results in a complete data set, and then it is possible to use naϊve estimators. After using most of common imputation methods, mean and total (imputation estimators) are still unbiased. However their variances (imputation variances) are underestimated by naϊve variance estimators. Sampling mechanism an...
متن کاملAccuracy evaluation of different statistical and geostatistical censored data imputation approaches (Case study: Sari Gunay gold deposit)
Most of the geochemical datasets include missing data with different portions and this may cause a significant problem in geostatistical modeling or multivariate analysis of the data. Therefore, it is common to impute the missing data in most of geochemical studies. In this study, three approaches called half detection (HD), multiple imputation (MI), and the cosimulation based on Markov model 2...
متن کاملFractional Regression Nearest Neighbor Imputation
Sample surveys typically gather information on a sample of units from a finite population and assign survey weights to the sampled units. Survey frequently have missing values for some variables for some units. Fractional regression imputation creates multiple values for each missing value by adding randomly selected empirical residuals to predicted values. Fractional imputation methods assign ...
