Statistical Techniques and Artificial Intelligence are becoming much more a necessity in a fastened world rather than just a theoretical use case. In order to satisfy this need, the optimization process starts with data collecting and cleaning. The aim of this paper is to provide a short overview of the outlier detection methods and to explain the need for data cleaning in the field of energy consumption by analyzing the energetic profile data from the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca's swimming complex. In the first and second parts of the article, a short overview of cleaning methods are presented. The third part compares the efficiency of the proposed methods. Finally, but not least the fourth part of the article is dedicated to conclusions and future work.
