Outliers are data that are in a very far distance from other values in a set of data

Once an outlier is detected in a set of data, we can do the following to them:

  • Discard the outlier
  • Change the value of the outlier with another value within close range
  • Consider the distribution given

We may have a set of data where some of the <em>values are far in distance from the majority of the data</em>. The set of such data are known as an outlier.

For example, give the set of data;

  • 2, 4, 7, 45, 8

45 can be considered as an outlier since the <em>distance of data</em><em> to all other data is</em><em> large</em><em>.</em>

Once an outlier is detected in a set of data, we can do the following to them:

  • Discard the outlier
  • Change the value of the outlier with another value within close range
  • Consider the distribution given
