This research presented the validity of applying a data-driven approach to the aircraft initial sizing problem. The limitations of the existing methods are overcome by using machine learning techniques. K-nearest neighbors algorithm and Variational autoencoder were used in this study for the imputation of the incomplete aircraft data. Both of the models have successfully estimated target values.
