1 //! Tukey's method
2 //!
3 //! The original method uses two "fences" to classify the data. All the observations "inside" the
4 //! fences are considered "normal", and the rest are considered outliers.
5 //!
6 //! The fences are computed from the quartiles of the sample, according to the following formula:
7 //!
8 //! ``` ignore
9 //! // q1, q3 are the first and third quartiles
10 //! let iqr = q3 - q1; // The interquartile range
11 //! let (f1, f2) = (q1 - 1.5 * iqr, q3 + 1.5 * iqr); // the "fences"
12 //!
13 //! let is_outlier = |x| if x > f1 && x < f2 { true } else { false };
14 //! ```
15 //!
16 //! The classifier provided here adds two extra outer fences:
17 //!
18 //! ``` ignore
19 //! let (f3, f4) = (q1 - 3 * iqr, q3 + 3 * iqr); // the outer "fences"
20 //! ```
21 //!
22 //! The extra fences add a sense of "severity" to the classification. Data points outside of the
23 //! outer fences are considered "severe" outliers, whereas points outside the inner fences are just
24 //! "mild" outliers, and, as the original method, everything inside the inner fences is considered
25 //! "normal" data.
26 //!
27 //! Some ASCII art for the visually oriented people:
28 //!
29 //! ``` ignore
30 //! LOW-ish NORMAL-ish HIGH-ish
31 //! x | + | o o o o o o o | + | x
32 //! f3 f1 f2 f4
33 //!
34 //! Legend:
35 //! o: "normal" data (not an outlier)
36 //! +: "mild" outlier
37 //! x: "severe" outlier
38 //! ```
