CVThresh (version 1.1.2)

cvimpute.by.wavelet: Imputation by wavelet

Description

This function performs imputation for test dataset of cross-validation given test dataset index and initial values.

Usage

cvimpute.by.wavelet(y, impute.index, impute.tol=0.1^3, 
    impute.maxiter=100, impute.vscale="independent",
    filter.number=10, family="DaubLeAsymm", ll=3)

Arguments

y

observation

impute.index

test dataset index for cross-validation

impute.tol

tolerance for imputation

impute.maxiter

maximum iteration for imputation

impute.vscale

specifies whether variance is adjusted level-by-level or not. ``level" or ``independent"

filter.number

specifies the smoothness of wavelet in the decomposition (argument of WaveThresh)

family

specifies the family of wavelets ``DaubExPhase" or ``DaubLeAsymm" (argument of WaveThresh)

ll

specifies the lowest level to be thresholded

Value

Imputed values according to cross-validation scheme.

Details

In wavelet context, test dataset of cross-validation is missing values. Based on h-likelihood concept and penalized least squares, this function performs imputation by wavelet for missing dataset, given the missing dataset. Lee and Nelder (1996, 2001) introduced the hierarchical likelihood as an extended likelihood for general models that include unobserved random variables such as missing. Following Lee and Nelder (1996, 2001), treat the missing values as random parameters and it has been known that a wavelet shrinkage estimator can be formulated by penalized least squares problem (Antoniadis and Fan, 2001). This arguments lead to the iterative algorithm for imputing the missing values based on wavelet shrinkage.
