title: 'deadwood: Outlier Detection via Pruning Mutual Reachability Minimum Spanning
  Trees'
version: 0.9.0.9002
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.deadwood
abstract: 'Implements an anomaly detection algorithm based on a dataset''s mutual
  reachability minimum spanning tree: ''deadwood'' chops protruding tree segments
  and marks small debris as outliers; see Gagolewski (2026) <https://deadwood.gagolewski.com/>.
  More precisely, the use of a mutual reachability distance pulls peripheral points
  farther away from each other. Tree edges with weights beyond the detected elbow
  point are removed. All the resulting connected components whose sizes are smaller
  than a given threshold are deemed anomalous. The ''Python'' version of ''deadwood''
  is available via ''PyPI''.'
