Description

Provides methods for detecting multivariate outliers in numeric datasets. The package implements classical Mahalanobis distance, robust Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD), and Principal Component Analysis (PCA)-based approaches for outlier detection. The methodology is informed by Aggarwal (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-47578-3> and Grentzelos, Caroni and Barranco-Chamorro (2020) <doi:10.1002/cmm4.1129>. Visualization functions are included to aid interpretation of detected outliers. Mahalanobis distance calculations are accelerated using 'C++' through 'Rcpp'.
