Tukey John
Tukey's John refers to a statistical method developed by John Tukey, which focuses on robustly summarizing data and identifying outliers in measurement. It involves using techniques like the median and the interquartile range rather than means and standard deviations, making it less sensitive to extreme values. This approach helps to provide a clearer understanding of data distributions, especially in situations where data may be skewed or contain anomalies. By using Tukey’s methods, analysts can better interpret results and make more accurate decisions based on the data.
