Using modified z-scores with PyOD
It is time to unleash pyod
on outliers. We use the MAD
estimator from pyod
to utilize modified z-scores. The estimator already uses the median_abs_deviation
function under the hood, so it is unnecessary to repeat the previous steps.
The MAD
estimator has already been loaded from pyod.models.mad
and the data is available as prices
.

Anomaly Detection in Python
Instrucciones del ejercicio
- Initialize
MAD()
with athreshold
of 3.5. - Reshape
prices
to make it 2D. - Generate inlier/outlier labels on
prices
by fitting and predicting usingmad
simultaneously. - Subset
labels
for outliers, which are denoted as 1.
