Abstract

A conventional missing value problem in the statistical analysis k-Nearest Neighbor(KNN) method are used for a simple imputation method. When one of the k-nearest neighbors is an extreme value or outlier, the KNN method can create a bias. In this paper, we propose a Weighted k-Nearest Neighbors(WKNN) imputation method that can supplement KNN’s faults. A Monte-Carlo simulation study is also adapted to compare the WKNN method and KNN method using real data set.
