Detecting outliers when fitting data with nonlinear regression – a new method based on robust nonlinear regression and the false discovery rate

BMC Bioinformatics · 2006 · Vol. 7(1) · pp. 123–123

Abstract

Our method, which combines a new method of robust nonlinear regression with a new method of outlier identification, identifies outliers from nonlinear curve fits with reasonable power and few false positives.
