Abstract:

Multiple imputation is a well-known method to implement the non- response in data, which uses `best- t' values to replace the missing values. However, the presumed distribution in the imputation may lead to biased results. An empirical likelihood based imputation pro- cedure is proposed and compared with existing imputation method, like Multiple Imputation. Simulations show comparable results for our imputation method.
