Simulate Controlled OUTliers - SCOUTer

(Matlab version)

SCOUTer is a set of functions that open the door towards a new way of simulating outliers. Using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as a base model, SCOUTer enables the user to control exactly how the simulated outliers will be.

This is possible by controlling the pair of properties that define outliers: the Squared Prediction Error (SPE) and the Hotelling's T2. By setting the desired target values to these statistics, the user can obtain all types of outliers.

Control your simulations with SCOUTer in an easy and interactive way.

Type: 'help <function_name>' in Matlab command window to get more information about <function_name>.m. Check MatlabDocu.pdf with all the documentation about the functions in SCOUTer Matlab version.
