I'm trying to use the rmoutliers (A, 'mean') function to remove outliers that are three standard deviations from the mean but when I use this function it comes up with multiple errors.

I'm trying to use rmoutliers to remove outliers three standard deviations from the mean for my data set. I imported the data set from an excel file into matlab using the readtable function and matlab output a 1537090 x 6 table. When a try to use FilteredData = rmoutliers(data, 'mean') it comes up with multiple errors. Does anyone know why this occurs? See below my code and the errors.

No worries, realised it was because my data has co-ordinates in it which the function can't read.

Oh wait no it's still not working

As the error mentioned, your data in column 1 is a cell array. You need to convert it to a type accepted by rmoutlier preferably a numeric type.

I think you forgot to read all the posting guidelines. Don't keep delaying an answer by forgetting to attach your csv file. I'm not going to try anything until I see that you've attached it. But do it only after you've read this link.
