Outlier detection is a primary step in many data-mining applications. We present several methods for outlier detection, while distinguishing between univariate vs. multivariate techniques and parametric vs. nonparametric procedures. In presence of outliers, special attention should be taken to assure the robustness of the used estimators. Outlier detection for Data Mining is often based on distance measures, clustering and spatial methods.
