Abstract

Seven decision tree algorithms for missing values were compared based on split point selection, split variable selection, and the predictive accuracy. The simulation experiments were carried out under two scenarios. We found that the performance of missing value algorithms depends on the characteristic of data set under the analysis and none can outperform others in all cases.
