| Real data tables
often contain the spaces: the value of some property xj may be absent for
some object ai. As a result, the table with one or more empty cells will
be forwarded to data analysis programs. The majority of known data
analysis methods are not appropriate for treatment of «incomplete»
tables, therefore the attempts were made to solve the problem of filling
of gaps in the tables. One can find the review of such investigations in
[1,2]. Algorithms [3] may differ from each other by basic heuristic suggestions
(hypotheses).
This software contains algorithms of two families – ZET and WANGA. For error detection one cam use algorithm ZER-R. 1. Afifi A.A., Elashov R.M. Missing observation in multivariation statistics // J.
