Dear R-Users,

i want to use the function mice of the mice package with data, that contains dates, but this gives an error

x <- Sys.time()
dat <- data.frame(dates=(1:10)*60*60*24+x, size=rnorm(10))
dat$dates[c(3,7)]<-NA

mice(dat)

Fehler in check.imputationMethod(imputationMethod, defaultImputationMethod, :
 The following functions were not found: mice.impute.

I guess the mice package is not implemented for the POSIXt data class yet.
A workaround could be to build time intervals and use mice with that and transform it back afterwards. Or is there a more efficient way?



I think you are completely right.

You may want to provide a method for the mice maintainer who will certainly be happy about your contribution.

Best,
Uwe Ligges


Many thanks if anyone could tell me what i do wrong and what is the problem here.

best regards

Andreas
