Multivariate outliers and decompositions of mahalanobis distance

Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2000, vol. 29, issue 7, 1511-1526

Abstract: Two decompositions of the Mahalanobis distance are considered. These decompositions help to explain some reasons for the outlyingness of multivari- ate observations. They also provide a graphical tool for identifying outliers including those that have a large influence on the multiple correlation coefficient, Illustrative examples are given.
