Imputes univariate missing data using logistic regression.
mice.impute.logreg(y, ry, x, ...)Incomplete data vector of length n
Vector of missing data pattern of length n
(FALSE=missing, TRUE=observed)
Matrix (n x p) of complete covariates.
Other named arguments.
A vector of length nmis with imputations (0 or 1).
Imputation for binary response variables by the Bayesian logistic regression model (Rubin 1987, p. 169-170). The Bayesian method consists of the following steps:
Fit a logit, and find (bhat, V(bhat))
Draw BETA from N(bhat, V(bhat))
Compute predicted scores for m.d., i.e. logit-1(X BETA)
Compare the score to a random (0,1) deviate, and impute.
The method relies on the
standard glm.fit function. Warnings from glm.fit are
suppressed. Perfect prediction is handled by the data augmentation
method.
