Popis: 7 páginas This paper presents a proposal based on an evolutionary algorithm to impute missing observations in multivariate data. A genetic algorithm based on the minimization of an error function derived from their covariance matrix and vector of means is presented. All methodological aspects of the genetic structure are presented. An extended explanation of the design of the fitness function is provided. An application example is solved by the proposed method.
