Outlier detection is the problem of finding a few different distributions in a set of mostly identical ones. Closeness testing is the problem of deciding whether two distributions are identical or different. We relate the two problems, construct a sub-linear generalized closeness test for unequal sample lengths, and use this result to derive a sub-linear universal outlier detector. We also lower bound the sample complexity of both problems.
