Still More Shades of Null: An Evaluation Suite for Responsible Missing Value Imputation
Summary: Introduces Shades-of-Null, an evaluation suite modeling multi-mechanism missingness and train–test missingness shift beyond MCAR/MAR/MNAR. Evaluates imputers across quality, predictive performance, fairness, and stability, exposing scenario-dependent trade-offs in 29,736 pipelines. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
