Hi, does anybody know where I need to insert the censoring in the missRanger package? Regards, Rebecca
You have asked what I believe is an incoherent question, and thus are unlikely to receive any useful replies (of course, I may be wrong about this...). Please read and follow the posting guide linked below to to ask a question that can be answered.

I could not find the word "censor" in the documentation for the
missRanger package, so I think additional explanation is needed.
Also, I would expect information about censoring to be included in data provided
to a function in a package -- inserting censoring into a package doesn't
make sense.

Hi Rebecca, I think it was me how suggested you the missRanger package, so this is actually a follow-up of you previous question about censored imputation of missing values (as far as I can remember). The missRanger package uses predictive mean matching, so take a look at ?missRanger::pmm and in general read a bit about what 'predictive mean matching' means. In a nutshell: If your data is appropriate for this technique, you do not need to take care of explicit censoring - it will be done implicitly by the package.
