US Patent 11568187 Managing missing values in datasets for machine learning models

Computer-implemented machines, systems and methods for managing missing values in a dataset for a machine learning model. The method may comprise importing a dataset with missing values; computing data statistics and identifying the missing values; verifying the missing values; updating the missing values; imputing missing values; encoding reasons for why values are missing; combining imputed missing values and the encoded reasons; and recommending models and hyperparameters to handle special or missing values.
