Development of an Imputation Strategy for the Portal Adus
نویسندگان
چکیده
The PORTAL ADUS stores traffic data reported by sensor station deployed along the freeway system of the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area. In addition to data retrieval interfaces, PORTAL provides end user applications such as congestion maps. The utility of end user applications is subject to the availability of data. Traffic data is generally known to suffer from a variety of problems, including incomplete observations. An application such as a congestion map is highly sensitive to data quality – in particular, the map is unable to display information if data is not available. Motivated by end-user applications, the PORTAL project has looked at imputation techniques for deployment in the archive, in an attempt to support on-line and off-line needs. PORTAL’s imputation strategy consists of carefully selecting a few imputation methods, in addition to implementing an imputation management mechanism.

Background Policy makers need models to be able to detect groups at high risk of HIV infection. Incomplete records and dirty data are frequently seen in national data sets. Presence of missing data challenges the practice of model development. Several studies suggested that performance of imputation methods is acceptable when missing rate is moderate. One of the issues which was of less concern...

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...
