Knowing how to detect outliers in datasets and how to visualize them is important for data analysts because it helps them identify potential errors or anomalies in data that can skew statistical analyses and modeling results.
Outliers can also provide valuable insights into unusual or unexpected patterns in the data that may be indicative of underlying trends or issues, facilitating more effective data-driven decision-making. In this video, Sam is going to demonstrate how you can detect and visualize outliers using DAX in Power BI.

In statistics, data points that fall beyond 3 standard deviations (3rd stdev) from the mean are often considered outliers.

Great video!! If I may... I think it would be more efficient if you indicate in the Outlier Sales measure, in an explicit way a "MAX": [Total Sales] >= MAX('Outliers Detection Logic'[Total Sales min]). And a MIN in the Non Outlier... Then the measure would only calculate the Total Sales for the Customers needed.

Great content! However, I have a few questions: 1. at 6:16, will it make a difference if I choose a different column name for the `Customers` table instead of customer name? (e.g., VALUES(Customers[Customer ID])). what i mean by "make a difference" is this: when I hover over each scatter point now, will the tooltip display the customer ID instead of the customer name? also, isn't it more accurate to use ID, since there's a rare chance that names are duplicated? 2. `Total Sales` column is found in the `Sales` table which is implicitly related to the `Customers` table via the `VALUES(Customers[Customer Name]) expression, correct? 3. at 8:55, from what I understand, `Sales Grouping` measure is evaluated for each data point in the scatter chart. If that's the case, then for each of these points, how does SELECTEDVALUE() function correctly evaluate to `Outlier` or `Non-Outlier`, given that the `Outlier Detection Logic` table is a detached table (i.e., not connected to `Sales` or `Customers` tables)?
