Support missing data #87

Closed jcrudy closed 8 years ago

See issue #2, which is a prerequisite. The algorithm is described in the same paper, Friedman, 1991, "Estimating functions of mixed ordinal and categorical variables using adaptive splines".

It is actually possible to do this without implementing full support for categorical variables. I am working on it now.

Just added a pull request for this: #88. Still needs to be benchmarked, as I'm worried speed was affected.

In master as of commit e123dad1e465e63726dceef8f7faa283788a7955. Closing issue.
