Dougherty edward@ Received 18 September 2009 Revised 30 October 2009 Accepted 25 November 2009 Recommended by Yue Wang Many missing-value MV imputation methods have been developed for microarray data but only a few studies have investigated the relationship between MV imputation and classification accuracy. Furthermore these studies are problematic in fundamental steps such as MV generation and classifier error estimation. In this work we carry out a model-based study that addresses some of the issues in previous studies. Six popular imputation algorithms two feature selection methods and three classification rules are considered. The results suggest that it is beneficial to apply MV imputation when the noise level is high variance is small or gene-cluster correlation is strong under small to moderate MV rates. In these cases if data quality metrics are available then it may be helpful to consider the data point with poor quality as missing and apply one of the most robust imputation algorithms to estimate the true signal based on the available high-quality data points. However at large MV rates we conclude that imputation methods are not recommended. Regarding the MV rate our results indicate the presence of a peaking phenomenon performance of .
