How to remove outlier by 2.5 standard deviations from the mean?

I'm really new to Matlab, and hope someone can help me!

I tried to use the function 'filloutliers' to remove and replace the outliers, but i want to detect outliers by 2.5 standard deviation instead of 3 (default).

Is it possible to do that by filloutliers, or should i use other functions?

i saw someone used plot to remove outliers, but i don't know how.

Looking forward to be answered, thanks in advance!

Looking at the help in

doc filloutliers

this should work:

filloutliers(A,'center','mean','ThresholdFactor', 2.5)

replacing A with whatever your array is called.

Hello

What replaces the oulier in this case? The computed mean value?
