Dear All:
*Re:* detect and replace outliers by the average
The dataset, please see attached, contains a group factoring column “
*factor*” and two columns of data “x1” and “x2” with some NA values. I need
some help to detect the outliers and replace it and the NAs with the
average within each level (0,1,2) for each variable “x1” and “x2”.
I tried the below code, but it did not accomplish what I want to do.
data<-read.csv("G:/20-Spring_2023/Outliers/data.csv", header=TRUE)
data
replace_outlier_with_mean <- function(x) {
replace(x, x %in% boxplot.stats(x)$out, mean(x, na.rm=TRUE)) #### ,
na.rm=TRUE NOT working
}
data[] <- lapply(data, replace_outlier_with_mean)
Thank you all very much for your help in advance.
with many thanks
abou
