Outliers in Statistical Data

Barnett, V., Lewis, T., Abeles, Francine·1979·Physics Today

Abstract

An updated edition of this standard reference work on outliers. Includes new areas of study such as outliers in direction data as well as developments in fields such as discordancy tests for univariate and multivariate samples. Re-organized to provide a more logical approach. Provides relevant illustration and tabulation as well as suggestions for further research.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
