mice.impute.fastpmm {mice} | R Documentation |
Imputes univariate missing data using fast predictive mean matching
mice.impute.fastpmm(y, ry, x, donors = 5, type = 1, ridge = 1e-05, version = "", ...)
y |

ry |
Response pattern of |
x |
Design matrix with |
donors |
The size of the donor pool among which a draw is made. The default is
|
type |
Type of matching distance. The default choice |
ridge |
The ridge penalty applied in |
version |
A character variable indicating the version. Currently unused. |

Imputation of y
by predictive mean matching, based on Rubin (1987, p.
168, formulas a and b). The procedure is as follows:
Estimate beta and sigma by linear regression
Draw beta* and sigma* from the proper posterior
Compute predicted values for yobs
beta
and
ymis
beta*
For each ymis
, find donors
observations with
closest predicted values, randomly sample one of these,
and take its observed value in y
as the imputation.
Ties are broken by making a random draw
among ties.
Note: The matching is done on predicted y
, NOT on
observed y
.
Numeric vector of length sum(!ry)
with imputations
The mice.impute.fastpmm()
function is an experimental
version of the standard mice.impute.pmm()
function.
In mice 2.22
both are equivalent. In future versions of
mice
the mice.impute.fastpmm()
function may be
subject to additional optimizations. This is an experimental feature.
