Outlier Detection

Outlier Detection refers to the method of identification and classification used to identify observations that are distinctly different or far from others. A popular method to clean a data set, outlier detection allows for defined outliers to inform classification of new observations as anomalies. Outliers are defined between two categories: univariate and multivariate. Univariate outliers are found in distributions in a single feature space, whereas multivariate outliers are found in n-dimensional spaces. Furthermore, outliers are also defined by their environment. Outliers that lay far away from the rest of the data are called "point outliers." Alternatively, "contextual outliers" are found within the data, often appearing as noise. There are a multitude of factors that can contribute to the appearance of an outlier, however those that are not the product of an error are called "novelties."
