Abstract

Outliers can significantly impact the performance of machine learning models by skewing data distributions and introducing noise. This paper explores various techniques for outlier detection and treatment, with a focus on Gaussian and non-Gaussian distributions, domain-specific limits, and visualizations. Practical implementation tips and Python code examples are provided to facilitate adoption in real-world scenarios

Keywords: Outlier Detection, Machine Learning, Python, IQR, Standard Deviation, KS Test, Median Absolute Deviation, Propensity Models.
