In compositions: Compositional Data Analysis

Returns a projector the the observed space in case of missings.

Description

Returns projectors on the observed subspace in the presence of missings.

Usage

missingProjector(x,...,by="s")
## S3 method for class 'acomp'
missingProjector(x,has=is.NMV(x),...,by="s")
## S3 method for class 'aplus'
missingProjector(x,has=is.NMV(x),...,by="s")
## S3 method for class 'rcomp'
missingProjector(x,has=!(is.MAR(x)|is.MNAR(x)),...,by="s")
## S3 method for class 'rplus'
missingProjector(x,has=!(is.MAR(x)|is.MNAR(x)),...,by="s")

Arguments

x	a dataset or object of the given class
has	a boolean matrix of the same size indicating nonmissing values
...	additional arguments for generic purpose only
by	the name of the dataset dimension on has for tensorial computation with tensorA package

Details

See the references for details on that function.

Value

A dataset of N square matrices of dimension DxD (with N and D respectively equal to the number of rows and columns in x). Each of these matrices gives the projection of a data row onto its observed sub-space.
The function sumMissingProjector takes all these matrices and sums them, generating a "summary" of observed sub-spaces. This matrix is useful to obtain estimates of the mean (and variance, in the future) still unbiased in the presence of lost values (only of type MAR, stricly-speaking, but anyway useful for any type of missing value, when used with care).
