In order to protect against this, we dampen the effect of outliers by using the Tukey bi-weight mean. PM-MM values that are a number of standard deviations away from the mean are given low weights in accordance with the graph shown here. Individual PM-MM data are multiplied by the weight factor before calculation of the mean. The weighted mean is then called the “signal.” Unweighted mean = 2063
