Missing value imputation using a novel grey based fuzzy c-means, mutual information based feature selection, and regression model
作者:
Highlights:
• A new hybrid method for the imputation of missing values is proposed.
• The method is based on a novel fuzzy c-means, mutual information, and regression.
• Performance of imputation increases by using Grey in the fuzzy c-means algorithm.
• The proposed method outperforms five existing imputation methods, in most cases.
• The proposed method can also provide high classification accuracies.
