MissingDataGUI: A Graphical User Interface for Exploring Missing Values in Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Missing values are common in data, and usually require attention in order to conduct the statistical analysis. One of the first steps is to explore the structure of the missing values, and how missingness relates to the other collected variables. This article describes an R package, that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) designed to help explore the missing data structure and to examine the results of different imputation methods. The GUI provides numerical and graphical summaries conditional on missingness, and includes imputations using fixed values, multiple imputations and nearest neighbors.

Visualization of missing values using the R-package VIM
This paper introduces new tools for the visualization of missing values. The tools can be used for exploring the data and the structure of the missing values. Depending on this structure, the tools can be helpful for identifying the mechanism generating the missings. This knowledge is important for selecting an appropriate imputation method to reliably estimate the missing values. The visualiza...

The package VIM (visualization and imputation of missing values) [Templ et al., 2011a] is developed to explore and analyze the structure of missing or imputed values in data using graphical methods. Getting knowledge about the structure is helpful to identify the mechanism, which is generating the missings, respectively errors, which may have happened in the imputation process. Furthermore, it ...

متن کاملExploring Word Order Universals: a Probabilistic Graphical Model Approach
In this paper we propose a probabilistic graphical model as an innovative framework for studying typological universals. We view language as a system and linguistic features as its components whose relationships are encoded in a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). Taking discovery of the word order universals as a knowledge discovery task we learn the graphical representation of a word order sub-syst...
