The tidy.outliers package now has 5 ways of scoring outliers on your data!
tidy.outliers is a pet project of mine born out of a project when I saw a coworker manually implement an outlier detection algorithm and wondered if tidy.models had an easy way to do it.
I knew that scikit had up to 5 established ways of detecting outliers and even a great page talking about outlier removal!
This situation left me wondering why no one had written something similar for the incredible tidymodels ecosystem. So I decided to do it myself.
I have added a method for users to pass a function to outlier steps, so now if you can have your custom univariate based rules to score outliers, using step_outliers_univariate
With the new step [step_outliers_h2o.extendedIsolationForest], you can read more about the function on their document page here
The new step_outliers_outForest uses the main function from the package, you can read more about it here.
The package reached 100% test coverage, and it currently passes four out of five setups for a possible cran release. I even posted my first video covering it. here
I also upgraded the package to the v2 action framework of the rstudio team, and you can read more about it here
