TLDR
The results show that the proposed methods outperform standard imputation methods in the presence of outliers, and the model-based method with robust regressions is preferable.

Flexible Imputation of Missing Data

TL;DR: The problem of missing data concepts of MCAR, MAR and MNAR simple solutions that do not (always) work multiple imputation in a nutshell and some dangers, some do's and some don'ts are covered.

robCompositions: An R-package for Robust Statistical Analysis of Compositional Data

TL;DR: The R-package robCompositions (Templ et al., 2009) contains functions for robust statistical methods designed for compositional data, like principal component analysis, factor analysis, and discriminant analysis.

Missing value imputation: a review and analysis of the literature (2006–2017)

TL;DR: This paper aims at reviewing and analyzing related studies carried out in recent decades, from the experimental design perspective, and identifying limitations in the existing body of literature based upon which some directions for future research can be gleaned.

Analysis and mapping of geochemical anomalies using logratio-transformed stream sediment data with censored values

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of logratio-and ln-transformed stream sediment geochemical data containing ca. 30% of samples with censored values of a pathfinder element for the mineral deposit-type of interest yielded the following findings: Exclusion of those samples supports interpretation of multi-element anomalies reflecting the presence of mineralization.

The concept of compositional data analysis in practice--total major element concentrations in agricultural and grazing land soils of Europe.

TL;DR: Because the difference between the two methods should be most pronounced in large-scale, and therefore highly variable, datasets, here a new dataset of agricultural soils, covering all of Europe, is used to demonstrate and compare both approaches.
