Given a feature set with rows that contain missing continuous values, and assuming the data...

Missing values are a common problem in data analysis and machine learning, as they can affect the quality and reliability of the data and the model. There are various methods to deal with missing values, such as deleting, imputing, or ignoring them. One of the most common methods is imputing, which means replacing the missing values with some estimated values based on some criteria. For continuous variables, one of the simplest and most widely used imputation methods is to fill in the missing values with the mean (average) of the observed values for that variable in the entire dataset. This method can preserve the overall distribution and variance of the data, as well as avoid introducing bias or noise.
