Modeling of Activation Data in the BrainMapTM Database: Detection of Outliers
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a system for meta-analytical modeling of activation foci from functional neuroimaging studies. Our main vehicle is a set of density models in Talairach space capturing the distribution of activation foci in sets of experiments labeled by lobar anatomy. One important use of such density models is identification of novelty, i.e., low probability database events. We rank the novelty of the outliers and investigate the cause for 21 of the most novel, finding several outliers that are entry and transcription errors or infrequent or non-conforming terminology. We briefly discuss the use of atlases for outlier detection. Hum. Brain Mapping 15:146–156, 2002. © 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Identification of outliers types in multivariate time series using genetic algorithm
Multivariate time series data, often, modeled using vector autoregressive moving average (VARMA) model. But presence of outliers can violates the stationary assumption and may lead to wrong modeling, biased estimation of parameters and inaccurate prediction. Thus, detection of these points and how to deal properly with them, especially in relation to modeling and parameter estimation of VARMA m...

متن کاملIntroduction Package CircOutlier For Detection of Outliers in Circular-Circular Regression
One of the most important problem in any statistical analysis is the existence of unexpected observations. Some observations are not a part of the study and are known as outliers. Studies have shown that the outliers affect to the performance of statistical standard methods in models and predictions. The point of this work is to provide a couple of statistical package in R software to identi...
متن کاملAutomated Detection of Outliers in Real-World Data
Most real-world databases include a certain amount of exceptional values, generally termed as “outliers”. The isolation of outliers is important both for improving the quality of original data and for reducing the impact of outlying values in the process of knowledge discovery in databases. Most existing methods of outlier detection are based on manual inspection of graphically represented data...
متن کاملA robust wavelet based profile monitoring and change point detection using S-estimator and clustering
Some quality characteristics are well defined when treated as response variables and are related to some independent variables. This relationship is called a profile. Parametric models, such as linear models, may be used to model profiles. However, in practical applications due to the complexity of many processes it is not usually possible to model a process using parametric models.In these cas...
