Eigenstructure-based angle for detecting outliers in multivariate data

There are two main reasons that motivate people to detect outliers; the first is the researchers’ intention; see the example of Mr Haldum’s cases in Barnett and Lewis. The second is the effect of outliers on analyses. This article does not differentiate between the various justifications for outlier...
