Handling of missing values | 4/26/07 12:29 AM
...just trying out some analysis and I am interested in how does Compumine handles missing values. Does anyone has some more information about the algorithm?

Thanks, Mario

Dear Mario,

RDS handles examples with missing values in variables used as part of a model (and during model creation) by using both information from other variables and from other examples that do not have missing values.

RDS does not use so-called pseudo-rules, but use a more efficient method.
