Handling Incomplete Data
1 - Decision Trees for Missing Data
-
If essential data is unavailable, use fallback algorithms or flag insights as uncertain.
-
If supplementary data is missing, proceed with the core streams but highlight exclusions.
2 - Adaptive Analysis Techniques
-
Substitutions: Replace missing metrics with correlated ones (e.g., wearable activity to approximate heart rate).
-
Threshold Adjustments: Provide partial analyses or disclaimers whenever critical data is lacking.
-
Machine Learning Imputation: Estimate unknown values using historical patterns.
3 - Data Quality Indicators
-
Confidence Levels: Assign reliability scores to summarized insights.
-
User Alerts: Notify learners or educators when incomplete data might affect interpretations.
-
Visual Indicators: Color-coded or icon-based prompts on dashboards to illustrate data quality.
