Dear all. First of all, my english isn't verry good, but I hope I can convey my concern. I've a general question about the Amelia algorithm. I'm no mathematician or statistician, but I had to use R and impute and analyse some data, and Amelia showed results that fitted my expectations. I'll have to defend my choice soon, but I haven't totally grasped what Amelia does. I'm particularly interested in a simple as possible explanation in how Amelia imputation works. I've read that it uses a bootstrapping-based algorithm, but how does it chose the values? The data had mainly value >0 (chemical concentrations, water temperature and pH-value).
