X-Som and L-Som: A Nested Approach for Missing Value Imputation

Abstract

In This Paper, a New Method for the Determination of Missing Values in Temporal Databases is Presented. This One is based on a Robust Version of a Nonlinear Classification Algorithm Called Self-Organizing Maps and It Consists of a Combination of Two Classifications in Order to Take Advantage of Spatial as Well as Temporal Dependencies of the Dataset. This Nested Approach Leads to a Significant Improvement of the Estimation of the Missing Values. an Application of the Determination of Missing Values for Hedge Fund Return Database is Presented.
