Time gaps and available values are considered in NA interpolation by shorvalu. Thus, more reliable interpolation is realized with these constraints and the successive using of obsedele in the preceding outlier removal.
shorvalu(data, start, end, intervals = 30, units = 'mins')A data frame containing outliers. Its columns from start to end will be checked.
The column number of the first selected variable.
The column number of the last selected variable.
The time gap of dividing periods as groups, is 30 (minutes) by default. This confines the interpolation inside short periods so that each interpolation has observed value(s) to refer to within every half an hour.
Units in time intervals/differences. It can be one of "secs", "mins", "hours", "days", or "weeks". The default is 'mins'.
A data frame with missing values being replaced linearly within short periods and with values to refer to.
It offers a robust interpolation method based on considering time gaps and available values.
