I've been using champ.impute, both Combine and KNN, to replace NAs. After running I receive this (I have 700k+ rows):

$beta
1            2            3            4            5            6
5.040964e-03 3.260464e-03 2.506848e-03 6.241857e-03 4.080995e-03 1.144493e-03
1.797270e-01 2.464607e-02 1.094900e-01 1.123960e-01 5.046866e-01 4.868431e-01

But when I ask head(myLoad$beta) I get this:

1           2           3          4           5           6
NA          NA 0.002506848         NA 0.004080995 0.001144493
NA          NA          NA 0.11239598 0.504686622 0.486843136

Am I missing something or shouldn't champ.impute replace the beta matrix with the imputed values?

I'm running R v. 3.3.3, ChAMP 2.6.0, I receive no errors.

Hello:

Can I have your code? I tested the function below, but it seems fine:

In below test, myLoad$beta is the 450K dataset included in ChAMP. I used it as an example, we can see that there is no NA in it, so I manually added 2000 NA value in it, then used champ.Impute() function to remove it. Finally, the result seems correct. There is no NA in final myImpute$beta.

> TestData <- myLoad$beta
> sum(is.na(TestData))
[1] 0
> TestData[sample(1:length(TestData),2000)] <- NA
> sum(is.na(TestData))
[1] 2000
> myImpute <- champ.impute(TestData)
