Amelia II implements our bootstrapping-based algorithm that gives essentially the same answers as the standard IP or EMis approaches, is usually considerably faster than existing approaches and can handle many more variables. Unlike Amelia I and other statistically rigorous imputation software, it virtually never crashes (but please let us know if you find to the contrary!). The program also generalizes existing approaches by allowing for trends in time series across observations within a cross-sectional unit, as well as priors that allow experts to incorporate beliefs they have about the values of missing cells in their data. Amelia II also includes useful diagnostics of the fit of multiple imputation models. The program works from the R command line or via a graphical user interface that does not require users to know R. authors: - family-names: Honaker given-names: James email: james@hona.kr - family-names: King given-names: Gary email: king@harvard.edu - family-names: Blackwell given-names: Matthew email: mblackwell@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3689-9527 preferred-citation: type: article title: 'Amelia II: A Program for Missing Data' authors: - family-names: Honaker given-names: James email: james@hona.kr - family-names: King given-names: Gary email: king@harvard.edu - family-names: Blackwell given-names: Matthew email: mblackwell@gov.harvard.edu orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3689-9527 journal: Journal of Statistical Software year: '2011' volume: '45' issue: '7' doi: 10.18637/jss.v045.i07 start: '1' end: '47' repository: https://matthewblackwell.r-universe.dev commit: 2db05884466055126dafcd4879a6c7802c9bfcf3 url: https://gking.harvard.edu/amelia date-released: '2024-11-07' contact: - family-names: Blackwell given-names: Matthew email: mblackwell@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3689-9527
