There are the following packages which are used for data imputation
- MICE
- missFores
- Mi
- Hmisc
- Amelia
- imputeR
In R, several packages are commonly used for data imputation, depending on the specific requirements and methods preferred. Some popular packages include:
- mice (Multivariate Imputation by Chained Equations): This package is widely used for imputing missing data using multiple imputation methods.
install.packages("mice")
library(mice)
- imputeTS: This package is specifically designed for time series imputation.
install.packages("imputeTS")
library(imputeTS)
- VIM (Visualization and Imputation of Missing Values): It provides visualization tools for missing data and offers various imputation methods.
install.packages("VIM")
library(VIM)
- missForest: This package is known for imputing missing values using a random forest algorithm.
install.packages("missForest")
library(missForest)
- Amelia: It provides an algorithm for imputing missing data with an emphasis on time series data.
install.packages("Amelia")
library(Amelia)
- Hmisc: While primarily known for its functions related to descriptive statistics, the
aregImpute
function in this package can be used for imputation.install.packages("Hmisc")
library(Hmisc)
Remember to install the packages using install.packages("package_name")
and load them into your R environment using library(package_name)
before using their functions. The choice of the package depends on the nature of your data and the imputation method you intend to apply.
