Abstract (arXiv)

An outlier is an observation or a data point that is far from rest of the data points in a given dataset or we can be said that an outlier is away from the center of mass of observations. Presence of outliers can skew statistical measures and data distributions which can lead to misleading representation of the underlying data and relationships. It is seen that the removal of outliers from the training dataset before modeling can give better predictions. With the advancement of machine learning, the outlier detection models are also advancing at a good pace. The goal of this work is to highlight and compare some of the existing outlier detection techniques for the data scientists to use that information for outlier algorithm selection while building a machine learning model.
