mice.impute.constant.Rd
Defines a fixed vector of values for imputation of a variable.
The method is particularly useful for the generation of
synthetic datasets, see syn_mice
(Example 1).
mice.impute.constant(y, ry, x, fixed_values, ... )
y | Incomplete data vector of length |
---|---|
ry | Vector of missing data pattern ( |
x | Matrix ( |
fixed_values | Vector containing fixed values |
... | More arguments to be passed to imputation function |
Vector of imputed values
