  1. Outliers and influential data points

  2. The distinction • An outlier is a data point whose response y does not follow the general trend of the rest of the data. • A data point is influential if it unduly influences any part of a regression analysis, such as predicted responses, estimated slope coefficients, hypothesis test results, etc.

  3. No outliers? No influential data points?

  13. Impact on regression analyses • Not every outlier strongly influences the regression analysis. • Always determine if the regression analysis is unduly influenced by one or a few data points. • Simple plots for simple linear regression. • Summary measures for multiple linear regression.

  14. The leverageshii

  15. The leverageshii The predicted response can be written as a linear combination of the n observed values y1, y2, …, yn: where the weights hi1, hi2, …, hii, …, hin depend only on the predictor values. For example:

  16. The leverageshii Because the predicted response can be written as: the leverage, hii, quantifies the influence that the observed response yi has on its predicted value .

  17. Properties of the leverages hii • The leverage hii is: • a measure of the distance between the x value for the ith data point and the mean of the x values for all n data points. • a number between 0 and 1, inclusive. • The sum of the hiiequals p, the number of parameters.

  22. Identifying data points whose x values are extreme .... and therefore potentially influential

  23. Using leverages to identify extreme x values Minitab flags any observations whose leverage value, hii, is more than 3 times larger than the mean leverage value…. …or if it’s greater than 0.99 (whichever is smallest).

  26. Important distinction! • The leverage merely quantifies the potential for a data point to exert strong influence on the regression analysis. • The leverage depends only on the predictor values. • Whether the data point is influential or not depends on the observed value yi.

  27. Identifying outliers(unusual y values)

  28. Identifying outliers • Residuals • Standardized residuals • also called internally studentized residuals

  29. Residuals Ordinary residuals defined for each observation, i = 1, …, n: x y FITS1 RESI1 1 2 2.2 -0.2 2 5 4.4 0.6 3 6 6.6 -0.6 4 9 8.8 0.2

  30. Standardized residuals Standardized residuals defined for each observation, i = 1, …, n: MSE1 0.400000 x y FITS1 RESI1 HI1 SRES1 1 2 2.2 -0.2 0.7 -0.57735 2 5 4.4 0.6 0.3 1.13389 3 6 6.6 -0.6 0.3 -1.13389 4 9 8.8 0.2 0.7 0.57735

  31. Standardized residuals • Standardized residuals quantify how large the residuals are in standard deviation units. • An observation with a standardized residual that is larger than 3 (in absolute value) is generally deemed an outlier. • Recall that Minitab flags any observation with a standardized residual that is larger than 2 (in absolute value).

  36. Identifying influential data points

  37. Identifying influential data points • Deleted residuals • Deleted t residuals • also called studentized deleted residuals • also called externally studentized residuals • Difference in fits, DFITS • Cook’s distance measure

  38. Basic idea of these four measures • Delete the observations one at a time, each time refitting the regression model on the remaining n-1 observations. • Compare the results using all n observations to the results with the ith observation deleted to see how much influence the observation has on the analysis.

  39. Deleted residuals yi = the observed response for ith observation = predicted response for ith observationbased on the estimated model with the ith observation deleted Deleted residual

  40. Deleted t residuals A deleted t residual is just a standardized deleted residual: The deleted t residuals follow a t distribution with ((n-1)-p) degrees of freedom.

  44. Do any of the deleted t residuals stick out like a sore thumb?

  45. DFITS The difference in fits: is the number of standard deviations that the fitted value changes when the ith case is omitted.

  46. Using DFITS An observation is deemed influential … … if the absolute value of its DFIT value is greater than: … or if the absolute value of its DFIT value sticks out like a sore thumb from the other DFIT values.
