there are some potential outliers. For an item to be considered a potential outlier in this experiment it has to be greater or less than three standard deviations from the mean diameter for each round. In the experimental group‚ the potential outlier for round 3 is 36 mm and those for round 4 are 25 mm‚ 27 mm and 27 mm. In the control groups‚ there is one potential outlier for round 1‚ which is 20 mm‚ one potential outlier for round 3‚ which is 9 mm and two potential outliers for round four‚ which are

Semi-Supervised K-Means Clustering for Outlier Detection in Mammogram Classification K. Thangavel1‚ A. Kaja Mohideen2 Department of Computer Science‚ Periyar University‚ Salem‚ India 1 drktvelu@yahoo.com‚ 2kaja.akm@gmail.com Abstract— Detection of outliers and relevant features are the most important process before classification. In this paper‚ a novel semi-supervised k-means clustering is proposed for outlier detection in mammogram classification. Initially the shape features are extracted

an example of discrete data is the number of animals. I am using quantitative data which has numerical values rather than qualitative data such as colors. This makes it easier to analyze the data and come to a conclusion. I will also be excluding outliers and anomalies which make my data more representative. The process is to collect data from a population of 264 animals including 19 mammals and 31 amphibians because it is neither large nor small and therefore giving me a clear concise result of the

There are several types of bad statistics that can be seen when looking at statistical data. According to the video “Don’t be fooled by bad statistics” (2010)‚ there are three basic types of bad data consisting of poorly collected data‚ leading questions‚ and misuse of center. Poorly collected data can produce misleading results. For example‚ when a publishing company conducted a phone survey of popular magazines but did so during business hours when stay at home moms were most likely to participate

To avoid any Outliers or anomalies affecting the accuracy of this study‚ I will remove them before taking the sample size of around 80-100 students and I will be using stratified sampling so each category categorized by gender‚ age and maths set have a equal proportion in the sample as in the total population so the results are as accurate as possible.

This represents a very slight affect by the outliers at the high and low ends of the data sample‚ indicating that the mean presents the most accurate description of the data set.
