dc.description.abstract | This thesis evaluates the performances of Multiple Imputation Technique (MIT) and Linear Interpolation methods for the estimation of missing values in a time series data (CO2 emissions data under the Fuel combustion sub-category of the Energy sector. Under this sub-category, data of two codes namely; i) Energy industries and ii) Manufacturing Industries and Construction were used). The performances of both methods were then compared using two notable indicators; the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and the Mean-Square Error (RMSE). This thesis highlights some advantages and limitations of each method compared with the other, thereby providing suggestions on which method to be used under prevailing conditions. | en_US |
