A Study of Multicollinearity Detection and Rectification under Missing Values

Source abstract

In this paper, the consequences of missing observations on data-based multicollinearity were analyzed. Different missing values has a different effect on multicollinearity in the system of multiple regression model. Therefore, to ascertain the clear relationship between both multicollinearity and skipping values on monotone and arbitrary missing values, the collinear effects were potentially studied on two types of missing values. Similarly, the comparison was done to investigate each response of multicollinearity on each pattern of the missing values with the same informatics data. It was found that tolerance and variance inflation factor fluctuates due to the missing of information from the sample analyzed at a different percentages of the missing values.It was observed that the more missing values available in the sample obtain from either population statistics or survey than multicollinearity will be found in the system of multiple regression, this is because as the number of Missingness increase it shows a drastic decrease from the tolerance level on both monotone and arbitrary types as observed from the analysis.
