Missing value estimation renders a probable state in which it is required to predict a missing value in a data set. It gets induced due to various reasons but the deal is to find a value for that particular cell. To justify a conclusive result in contrast to the original value various techniques are used. It does not assure us to choose a specific method applying for a data set because different techniques will yield different result for different data set that may not trigger an authentic value. So we deployed a technique confined of various other methods in it by which we can choose any of the methods in it to acquire a missing values. The main goal of this paper is the technique we proposed by assembling different methods get an efficient value. We have applied the proposed method in 6 different data set and validate the result using 4 validation techniques that can accord us with a most precise value or result.

Abstract


Missing value estimation renders a probable state in which it is required to predict a missing value in a data set. It gets induced due to various reasons but the deal is to find a value for that particular cell. To justify a conclusive result in contrast to the original value various techniques are used. It does not assure us to choose a specific method applying for a data set because different techniques will yield different result for different data set that may not trigger an authentic value. So we deployed a technique confined of various other methods in it by which we can choose any of the methods in it to acquire a missing values. The main goal of this paper is the technique we proposed by assembling different methods get an efficient value. We have applied the proposed method in 6 different data set and validate the result using 4 validation techniques that can accord us with a most precise value or result.
