Description
Abstract:	A procedure is proposed as a solution to the problem of constructing a classification rule based on samples which contain incomplete vectors. Simulation studies are made comparing this procedure to the standard procedure of ignoring these incomplete observations in the construction of the classification rule. The comparisons are made on the basis of the probability of misclassification.
