Detailed Description

Weighted Nearest Neighbour Imputation.

WeNNI is a continuous weights generalization of the (binary weights) kNNI algorithm presented by Troyanskaya et al. A reference to this paper is found in the NNI document referred to in the NNI class documentation. The NNI document also describes WeNNI in depth.

Note

Missing values should be represented with a zero weight. WeNNI will treat the corresponding data values as zero, i.e., this implies that NaNs and Infs with zero weight will not have any impact on calculations.a

Function doing WeNNI imputation.

Perform WeNNI on data in matrix with continuous uncertainty weights in weight using neighbours for the new impute value.

The return value can be used as an indication of how well the imputation worked. The return value should be zero if proper pre-processing of data is done. An example of bad data is a matrix with a column of zero weights, another is a corresponding situation with a row with all weights zero.

Returns

The number of rows that have at least one value not imputed.
