Displaying Extreme Values Outliers

Once you confirm normal characteristics to indicate to the KS6800A software about those fields that must be included or excluded in the scan for extreme value outliers, you may proceed with scanning for such fields in the Extreme values tab of Scan Outliers.

  1. In the Extreme values Scanner area, click so that the KS6800A software scans for normal distribution fields with outliers. Note that all those fields, which you have explicitly ignored from analyzing for outliers, will not be included in the scan even if they may have one or more extreme values as outliers.

The scan results are displayed in the Extreme values Outliers area.

The columns that appear in this area are:

  1. Description—Indicates those fields that may have one or more values, which are more than three standard deviations from the mean value.
  1. Number of Outliers—Count of such values in the corresponding field.

You may view either 5, 10 (default), 25 or 50 rows per page. Use the navigation buttons to view the rows displayed on another page.

  1. To view the outliers plotted on the normal distribution for a field, click the corresponding row in the Extreme values Outliers area.
For example, clicking the Description for the field Beta_length displays the respective chart with the outliers as selection. The Selection area in the Measurement Explorer pane helps you identify the range of data, which are identified as outliers.
