Hi, Does anyone know how to handle missing covariates using GAM function of Xpose (xpose.gam)?
Interestingly, “-99” (the default value of Xpose for missing data) is correclty recognized as missing value when the covariates summary is created, conversely xpose.gam considers it as a number, producing undesired results. Is there a way to pass an option like na=na.gam.replace or na=na.omit from xpose.gam to gam or should I replace NA's "manually" before calling xpose.gam?
