What is it about?

This work presents a methodology to estimate the value of the Epanechnikov kernel between two feature vectors counting on missing entries.

Why is it important?

The results presented here can be used as tools to adapt methods using the Epanechnikov kernel so they can handle missing/incomplete data.

Perspectives

Assuming the squared distance between two incomplete feature vectors can be modelled after a gamma distribution, this work presents an elegant formulation to estimate the Epanechnikov kernel as a transform of this squared distance.
