Challenge: Detecting Outliers Using 3-Sigma Rule
Task
In the previous chapter, we mentioned that we can find outliers for normally distributed random variables using the 3-sigma rule. In the general case, we will consider all those values outside the 3-sigma range as outliers.
Your task is to find outliers on a specific dataset. You have to assume that the given samples have a Gaussian distribution with a mean of 0
and a standard deviation of 4
.
Your task is to:
- Specify
mean
equals0
. - Specify
std
equals4
. - Specify criteria for outliers detection due to the 3-sigma rule.
Note
We have to admit that in real-life tasks, we cannot unreasonably say that the data has a Gaussian distribution and a certain mean and standard deviation. For this, various statistical tests are carried out. This will be discussed in more detail in the next chapters.
