bnstruct (version 1.0.6)

complete: Subset a BNDataset to get only complete cases.

Description

Given a BNDataset, return a copy of the original object where the raw.data consists only in the observations that do not contain missing values.

Usage

complete(x, complete.vars = seq_len(num.variables(x)))

# S4 method for BNDataset complete(x, complete.vars = seq_len(num.variables(x)))

Arguments

complete.vars

vector containing the indices of the variables to be considered for the subsetting; variables not included in the vector can still contain NAs.

Value

a copy of the original BNDataset containing only complete observations.

Details

Non-missingness can be required on a subset of variables (by default, on all variables).

If present, imputed data and bootstrap samples are eliminated from the new BNDataset, as using this method *after* using impute or bootstrap, there may likely be a loss of correspondence between the subsetted raw.data and the previously generated imputed.data and bootstrap samples.
