System for identification of outlier groups

A storage device comprising instructions, which when executed by a processing unit, configure the processing unit to:

• retrieve metric data on a plurality of groups of users, the metric data including a value of a performance metric for each of the plurality of groups;
• determine a control group of the plurality of groups utilizing a model based on a distance metric to calculate alikeness between users;
• determine that a first group of the plurality of groups is anomalous with respect to a value of the performance metric of the control group, wherein determining that the first group is anomalous includes determining that a difference, between a median value of the performance metric for the plurality of users and a median value of the performance metric for the control group, exceeds a threshold value;
• and
• present a user interface, the user interface including:
• a first portion including a visualization of a comparison of the value of the performance metric for the first group and values of the performance metric of other groups in the plurality of groups, and an indication of the determined anomaly with reference to the determined control group;
• and
• a second portion including a visualization of trend data of the performance metric for the first group over a period of time.
