요약	Matrix Completion is a technique for recovering a low-rank matrix from a small, possibly random subset of its entries. Introduced by Emmanuel Candès and Benjamin Recht in 2009, it reformulates the problem as nuclear norm minimization — a convex surrogate for rank minimization — and provides theoretical guarantees that exact recovery is achievable when entries are observed uniformly at random and the matrix satisfies an incoherence condition.	Multiple Imputation (MI), formally introduced by Donald B. Rubin in 1987, is a principled statistical procedure for handling missing data. Rather than replacing each missing value once, MI fills the gaps m times — each time drawing plausible values from the posterior predictive distribution of the missing data — producing m complete datasets. Each dataset is analysed independently, and the results are combined into a single set of estimates using Rubin's pooling rules. The MICE variant (Multivariate Imputation by Chained Equations), popularised by van Buuren and Groothuis-Oudshoorn (2011), extends the approach to mixed variable types by imputing each variable in turn through a sequence of conditional regression models.
