Indicator Package

The Indicator package is a versatile tool designed for constructing composite indicators, imputing missing data, evaluating imputation results, and normalizing data. It offers a range of functions to streamline the process of handling complex datasets, making it an essential resource for researchers, analysts, and data scientists.

Key Features

• Composite Indicator Construction: Implement various composite indicators such as the Mazziotta-Pareto Index, Adjusted Mazziotta-Pareto Index, Geometric aggregation, Linear aggregation, and more.
• Missing Data Imputation: Utilize techniques like Linear Regression Imputation, Hot Deck Imputation, etc., to fill in missing values effectively.
• Evaluation Metrics: Assess the quality of missing data imputation using metrics like R^2, RMSE, and MAE for informed decision-making.
• Data Normalization: Standardize and normalize data using methods like Standardization by Adjusted Mazziotta-Pareto method, Normalization by Adjusted Mazziotta-Pareto method, and others.

Installation

You can install the Indicator package from CRAN using: https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=Indicator
