Comparison of techniques for handling missing covariate data within prognostic modelling studies: a simulation study
BACKGROUND There is no consensus on the most appropriate approach to handle missing covariate data within prognostic modelling studies. Therefore a simulation study was performed to assess the effects of different missing data techniques on the performance of a prognostic model. METHODS Datasets were generated to resemble the skewed distributions seen in a motivating breast cancer example. Mu...
متن کاملComparison of imputation methods for handling missing covariate data when fitting a Cox proportional hazards model: a resampling study
BACKGROUND The appropriate handling of missing covariate data in prognostic modelling studies is yet to be conclusively determined. A resampling study was performed to investigate the effects of different missing data methods on the performance of a prognostic model. METHODS Observed data for 1000 cases were sampled with replacement from a large complete dataset of 7507 patients to obtain 500...
متن کاملA Review of Missing Data Handling Methods
Most of the real world datasets suffer from the problem of missing data. It may lead data mining analysts to end with wrong inferences about data under study. Many researchers are working on this problem to introduce more sophisticated methods. Eventhough many methods are available, analysts are facing difficulty in searching a suitable method due to lack of knowledge about the methods and thei...
متن کاملPerformance evaluation of different estimation methods for missing rainfall data
There are numerous methods to estimate missing values of which some are used depending on the data type and regional climatic characteristics. In this research, part of the monthly precipitation data in Sarab synoptic station, east Azerbaijan province, Iran was randomly considered missing values. In order to study the effectiveness of various methods to estimate missing data, by seven classic s...
متن کاملComparison of Methods of Handling Missing Data: A Case Study of KDHS 2010 Data
Missing data poses a major threat to observational and experimental studies. Analysis of data having ignored missingness results to estimates that are inefficient and unbiased. Various researches have been done to determine the best methods of dealing with missing data. The analysis used in these researches involved simulating missing data from complete data. Missing data are then imputed using...
