Predicting/Imputing the Missing Values of a Poisson GLM Regression in R? In this article, we will explore ways to impute missing values in a dataset that contains counts for different categories such as Unnatural, Natural, and Total for Year (2001-2009), Month (1-12), Gender (M/F), and AgeGroup (4 groups). We’ll focus on using the coefficients of a Poisson Generalized Linear Model (GLM) regression to predict the missing values.

The final answer is: Method 1: import pandas as pd # create data frame df = pd.DataFrame({ 'ID': [1, 1, 2, 2], 'Date': ['2021-01-01', '2021-02-01', '2021-03-01', '2021-04-01'], 'Holding': [13, 0, 8, 0] }) # group by month start, sum holdings and add a month for each ID z = pd.concat([ df, (df.groupby('ID')['Date'].last() + pd.DateOffset(months=1)).reset_index().assign(Holding=0), ]).set_index('Date').groupby('ID').resample('MS').sum() # group by 'ID' leaving the 'Date' index, compute rolling means out = z.assign(mo2avg=z.reset_index('ID').groupby('ID')['Holding'].rolling(2, min_periods=0).mean()) # drop rows where both Holding and avg are 0: out = out.
