  2. Box plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_plot

    Figure 2. Box-plot with whiskers from minimum to maximum Figure 3. Same box-plot with whiskers drawn within the 1.5 IQR value. A boxplot is a standardized way of displaying the dataset based on the five-number summary: the minimum, the maximum, the sample median, and the first and third quartiles.

  3. Grubbs's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grubbs's_test

    However, multiple iterations change the probabilities of detection, and the test should not be used for sample sizes of six or fewer since it frequently tags most of the points as outliers. [3] Grubbs's test is defined for the following hypotheses: H 0: There are no outliers in the data set H a: There is exactly one outlier in the data set

  4. Contour boxplot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contour_boxplot

    The observation in the box indicates the median, or the most central observation which is also a robust statistic to measure centrality. The "whiskers" of the boxplot are the vertical lines of the plot extending from the box and indicating the maximum envelope of the dataset except the outliers.

  5. Data and information visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_and_information...

    Box and whisker plot: Box and Whisker Plot: x axis; y axis; A method for graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their quartiles. Box plots may also have lines extending from the boxes (whiskers) indicating variability outside the upper and lower quartiles. Outliers may be plotted as individual points.

  6. Winsorizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winsorizing

    Winsorizing or winsorization is the transformation of statistics by limiting extreme values in the statistical data to reduce the effect of possibly spurious outliers. It is named after the engineer-turned-biostatistician Charles P. Winsor (1895–1951). The effect is the same as clipping in signal processing.

  7. Interquartile range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_range

    Box-and-whisker plot with four mild outliers and one extreme outlier. In this chart, outliers are defined as mild above Q3 + 1.5 IQR and extreme above Q3 + 3 IQR. The interquartile range is often used to find outliers in data. Outliers here are defined as observations that fall below Q1 − 1.5 IQR or above Q3 + 1.5 IQR.

  8. Summary statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summary_statistics

    Box plot of the Michelson–Morley experiment, showing several summary statistics. In descriptive statistics, summary statistics are used to summarize a set of observations, in order to communicate the largest amount of information as simply as possible. Statisticians commonly try to describe the observations in

  9. Chauvenet's criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chauvenet's_criterion

    The idea behind Chauvenet's criterion finds a probability band that reasonably contains all n samples of a data set, centred on the mean of a normal distribution.By doing this, any data point from the n samples that lies outside this probability band can be considered an outlier, removed from the data set, and a new mean and standard deviation based on the remaining values and new sample size ...
