In today’s world, we completely rely on digital devices to collect data; a failure in such digital devices may result in huge information loss thereby making data mining a more tedious job for a Data Analyst. Missingness to a greater extent in a dataset subsequently comes out with inappropriate results and incomplete data analysis. Therefore, a need to develop an algorithm that can predict the missing values efficiently and accurately. This research paper proposes a novel splitting-based IMV-RE (Imputing the Missing Values in Real-Time Environment) algorithm to impute different missing values within a dataset. In the proposed IMV-RE algorithm, an upper limit is set for every class containing missing values that assist the algorithm to predict the missing values more accurately. The experimentation is performed on ten benchmark datasets that include completely numerical values as well as mixed data. Comparative experimental analysis indicates that the proposed IMV-RE algorithm outperforms the existing techniques in sensitivity to Accuracy, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Coefficient of Determination (R2).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
