This paper concerns itself with the methods of identifying outliers in an otherwise normally distributed data set. Several significant tests and criteria designed for this purpose are described here, Peirce's criterion, Chauvenet's criterion, Grubbs' test, Dixon's test and Cochran's test. Deriving of the tests and criteria is indicated and finally the results of the use of the test and criteria on simulated data with normal distribution and inserted outlier are looked into. Codes in programming language R with the implementation of these test and criteria using existing functions are included. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
