Outlier detection techniques play an important role in enhancing the reliability of data communication in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Considering the importance of outlier detection in WSNs, many outlier detection techniques have been proposed. Unfortunately, most of these techniques still have some potential limitations, that is, (a) high rate of false positives, (b) high time complexity, and (c) failure to detect outliers online. Moreover, these approaches mainly focus on either temporal outliers or spatial outliers. Therefore, this paper aims to introduce novel algorithms that successfully detect both temporal outliers and spatial outliers. Our contributions are twofold: (i) modifying the Hampel Identifier (HI) algorithm to achieve high accuracy identification rate in temporal outlier detection, (ii) combining the Gaussian process (GP) model and graph-based outlier detection technique to improve the performance of the algorithm in spatial outlier detection. The results demonstrate that our techniques outperform the state-of-the-art methods in terms of accuracy and work well with various data types.

An objective and one-step detection procedure of multiple outliers is suggested by using the gaps of the order statistics. The detection procedure can be used as a routine outlier detection method of a statistical analysis computer program. The procedure is applied to some examples including the data selected by Kitagawa.

The detection of multiple outliers in nonlinear regression models can be computationally not feasible. As a compromise approach, we consider the use of simulated annealing algorithm, an approximate approach to combinatorial optimization. We show that this method ensures convergence and works well in locating multiple outliers while reducing computational time.

In multiple linear regression model we have presupposed assumptions (independence normality variance homogeneity and so on) on error term. When case weights are given because of variance heterogeneity we can estimate efficiently regression parameter using weighted least squares estimator. Unfortunately this estimator is sen-sitive to outliers like ordinary least squares estimator. Thus in this paper we proposed some statistics for detection of outliers in weighted least squares regression.

A linear regression method is commonly used to analyze data because of its simplicity and applicability; however, it is well known that data may contain some outliers and influential cases that may have a harmful effect on a statistical analysis. Thus detection and examination of outliers or influential cases are important parts of data analysis. In detecting multiple outliers, masking effects usually occur and make it difficult to identify the true outliers. We propose to use dynamic plots as a method resistant to masking effect. The procedure using dynamic plots is useful to find appropriate basic sets with which a dependent outliers detection method start and detect a true outliers set. Examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested idea.

Many procedures are available to identify a single outlier or an isolated influential point in linear regression and logistic regression. But the detection of influential points or multiple outliers is more difficult, owing to masking and swamping problems. The multiple outlier detection methods for logistic regression have not been studied from the points of direct procedure yet. In this paper we consider the direct methods for logistic regression by extending the $Pe\tilde{n}a$ and Yohai (1995) influence matrix algorithm. We define the influence matrix in logistic regression by using Cook's distance in logistic regression, and test multiple outliers by using the mean shift model. To show accuracy of the proposed multiple outlier detection algorithm, we simulate artificial data including multiple outliers with masking and swamping.

We suggest a method of identifying outliers, using local influence, in regression when linear constraints are imposed on the regression coefficients. An example is given for illustration.

There is a need to detect heteroscedasticity in a regression analysis; however, it invalidates the standard inference procedure. The diagnostics on heteroscedasticity may be distorted when both outliers and heteroscedasticity exist. Available heteroscedasticity detection methods in the presence of outliers usually use robust estimators or separating outliers from the data. Several approaches have been suggested to identify outliers in the heteroscedasticity problem. In this article conventional tests on heteroscedasticity are modified by using a sequential outlier detection methods to separate outliers from contaminated data. The performance of the proposed method is compared with original tests by a Monte Carlo study and examples.

Existing Outlier detections have been widely studied in geosensor networks. Recently, machine learning and data mining have been applied the outlier detection method to build a model that distinguishes outliers based on anchored criterion. However, it is difficult for the existing methods to detect outliers against incoming time-variant data, because outlier detection needs to monitor incoming data and classify irregular attacks. Therefore, in order to solve the problem, we propose a time-variant outlier detection using 2-dimensional grid method based on unanchored criterion. In the paper, outliers using geosensor data was performed to classify efficiently. The proposed method can be utilized applications such as network intrusion detection, stock market analysis, and error data detection in bank account.

The problem of selecting variables in the presence of outliers is considered. Variable selection and outlier detection are not separable problems because each observation affects the fitted regression equation differently and has a different influence on each variable. We suggest a simultaneous method for variable selection and outlier detection in a linear regression model. The suggested procedure uses a sequential method to detect outliers and uses all possible subset regressions for model selections. A simplified version of the procedure is also proposed to reduce the computational burden. The procedures are compared to other variable selection methods using real data sets known to contain outliers. Examples show that the proposed procedures are effective and superior to robust algorithms in selecting the best model.
