Outliers Capping

Introduction  In the past few articles, we have seen about Outliers, What are they, How they are introduced and discussed few techniques how to handle these outliers in our dataset.  Another technique that is widely used while handling outliers is capping the data . Capping means defining the limits for a field.  Capping in a sense is similar to trimming the dataset, but the difference here is, while trimming we used IQR or z-score and trimmed the data based on some IQR or z-score value. Here instead of trimming or removing the values from the dataset, we convert the outliers and bring them in the limit or range of our data.
