What is the effect of 'binning' on the overall variance of the dataset?

  • It can either increase or decrease the variance
  • It decreases the variance
  • It does not affect the variance
  • It increases the variance
Binning reduces the variance of a dataset by replacing outlier values with summary statistics like the bin mean or median, hence, reducing the spread of data.
