[R] missing data imputation - simulation
My dataset contains missing data and I would like to do something like an EM algorithm or a Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach to get rid of the missing data. Is there a function for imputation or simulation of missing data apart from those in the randomForest library? Thanks in advance Birgit - The art of living is more like wrestling than dancing.

Birgit, not knowing your data, I would recommend R-package mice or function aregImpute from R-package Hmisc as good multi-purpose tools.
