ClueGAIN: Application of Transfer Learning On Generative Adversarial Imputation Nets (GAIN)

Many studies have attempted to solve the problem of missing data using various approaches. Among them, Generative Adversarial Imputation Nets (GAIN) was first used to impute data with Generative Adversarial Nets (GAN) and good results were obtained. Subsequent studies have attempted to combine various approaches to address some of its limitations. ClueGAIN is first proposed in this study, which introduces transfer learning into GAIN to solve the problem of poor imputation performance in high missing rate data sets. ClueGAIN can also be used to measure the similarity between data sets to explore their potential connections.
