Learning outcomes

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

  • apply methods of reviewing data such as identifying missing values, visualising the pattern of missingness and finding duplicates in data in R
  • do automatic editing where you can apply restrictions, check which restrictions have been violated and correct those
  • impute missing value using model-based methods such as mean, ratio and regression imputation in R
  • impute missing values using donor-based imputation such as the random hot deck, sequential hot deck, hierarchical hot deck in R
  • impute missing value using k-nearest neighbour (KNN) and predictive mean matching imputation in R
