  2. Outlier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlier

    The modified Thompson Tau test is used to find one outlier at a time (largest value of δ is removed if it is an outlier). Meaning, if a data point is found to be an outlier, it is removed from the data set and the test is applied again with a new average and rejection region. This process is continued until no outliers remain in a data set.

  3. Normal probability plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_probability_plot

    The normal probability plot is a graphical technique to identify substantive departures from normality. This includes identifying outliers, skewness, kurtosis, a need for transformations, and mixtures. Normal probability plots are made of raw data, residuals from model fits, and estimated parameters. A normal probability plot

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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

  6. Scatter plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatter_plot

    A scatter plot, also called a scatterplot, scatter graph, scatter chart, scattergram, or scatter diagram, [2] is a type of plot or mathematical diagram using Cartesian coordinates to display values for typically two variables for a set of data. If the points are coded (color/shape/size), one additional variable can be displayed.

  7. Dixon's Q test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixon's_Q_test

    However, at 95% confidence, Q = 0.455 < 0.466 = Q table 0.167 is not considered an outlier. McBane [1] notes: Dixon provided related tests intended to search for more than one outlier, but they are much less frequently used than the r 10 or Q version that is intended to eliminate a single outlier.

  8. Box plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_plot

    Because the whiskers must end at an observed data point, the whisker lengths can look unequal, even though 1.5 IQR is the same for both sides. All other observed data points outside the boundary of the whiskers are plotted as outliers. [10] The outliers can be plotted on the box-plot as a dot, a small circle, a star, etc. (see example below).

  9. Leverage (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leverage_(statistics)

    The formula then divides by () to account for the fact that we remove the observation rather than adjusting its value, reflecting the fact that removal changes the distribution of covariates more when applied to high-leverage observations (i.e. with outlier covariate values). Similar formulas arise when applying general formulas for statistical ...
