R Project Handling Missing Data Notes

The document provides a guide on handling missing data in R, specifically using the 'airquality' dataset. It covers methods for identifying, eliminating, and imputing missing values using packages like 'VIM' and 'mice', along with visualizations such as boxplots and density plots. Additionally, it includes a statistical comparison of the original and imputed datasets using the t-test.

Handling Missing Data In R

# 1) Handling missing or NA Values


#Load data
data("airquality")
View(airquality)
#Identify the missing values
is.na(airquality)
#Count missing values
sum(is.na(airquality))
#eliminate missing values
na.omit(airquality)
setwd("E:\\R programme\\R.Directory")
FN<-na.omit(airquality)
View(FN)
write.csv(FN,"FN.csv")

# 2) How to imputate missing data


mice,amelia and misForest
View(airquality)
#Install the package
install.packages("VIM")
library(VIM)
aggr(airquality)
nrow(na.omit(airquality))
#install package
install.packages("mice")
library(mice)
airquality_imp<-mice(airquality)
#complete data set
airquality_comp<-complete(airquality_imp)
View(airquality_comp)
#apply aggr function
aggr(airquality_comp)
#Getting the 4 graph in the plot section
par(mfrow=c(2,2))

boxplot(airquality$Ozone,main="Data with NA")

boxplot(airquality_comp$Ozone,main="Data with NA")


#Apply the t.test function

t.test(airquality$Ozone,airquality_comp$Ozone)
basis of p-value=there is no effect of imputation on actual data set.
#densisty plot
plot(density(airquality$Ozone,na.rm=TRUE),main="Data with NA")
lines(density(airquality_comp$Ozone,na.rm=TRUE),col="red",lty=3)

plot(density(airquality$Solar.R,na.rm=TRUE),main="Data with NA")


lines(density(airquality_comp$Solar.R,na.rm=TRUE),col="red",lty=3)
