As data rarely comes ready to be used and analyzed for machine learning right away, this package aims to help speed up the process of cleaning and doing initial exploratory data analysis specific to outliers. The package focuses on the tasks of identifying univariate outliers, providing summary of outliers like count, range of outliers, visualize them and giving functionality to remove them from data.
$ pip install py_outlier_utils
The three functions contained in this package are as follows:
outlier_identifier
: A function to identify outliers in the dataset and provide their summary as an outputvisualize_outliers
: A function to generate the eda plots highlighting outliers providing additional functionality to visualize themtrim_outliers
: A function to generate outlier free dataset by imputing them with mean, median or trim entire row with outlier from dataset.
While Python packages with similar functionalities exist, this package aims to provide summary, visualization of outliers in a single package with an additional functionality to generate outlier-free dataset. Few packages with similar functionality are as follows:
