Abstract: | This work aimed at proposing a procedure based on the cumulative distribution of maximums and minimums to identify outliers in generalized Gamma-response models. In order to validate such method, we used simulations scenarios defined by the combination of different samples, contamination rate and distributions with different degrees of asymmetry. In this context, probabilities related to errors in classification and accuracy were obtained by carrying by Monte Carlo simulations. Using cumulative distribution of extremes to identify outliers in a Gamma-response model is recommended, since it is not likely to present errors and was highly accurate in all assessed scenarios. |
