I have set of 200 data rows(implies a small set of data). I want to carry out some statistical analysis, but before that I want to exclude outliers.
What are the potential algos for the purpose? Accuracy is a matter of concern.
I am very new to Stats, so need help in very basic algos.
Start by plotting the leverage of the outliers and then go for some good ol’ interocular trauma (aka look at the scatterplot).
Lots of statistical packages have outlier/residual diagnostics, but I prefer Cook’s D. You can calculate it by hand if you’d like using this formula from mtsu.edu (original link is dead, this is sourced from archive.org).
