  2. Median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median

    The median of a power law distribution x −a, with exponent a > 1 is 2 1/(a − 1) x min, where x min is the minimum value for which the power law holds [10] The median of an exponential distribution with rate parameter λ is the natural logarithm of 2 divided by the rate parameter: λ −1 ln 2.

  3. Mode (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(statistics)

    For example, a distribution of points in the plane will typically have a mean and a mode, but the concept of median does not apply. The median makes sense when there is a linear order on the possible values. Generalizations of the concept of median to higher-dimensional spaces are the geometric median and the centerpoint.

  4. Five-number summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-number_summary

    Splitting the observations either side of the median gives two groups of four observations. The median of the first group is the lower or first quartile, and is equal to (0 + 1)/2 = 0.5. The median of the second group is the upper or third quartile, and is equal to (27 + 61)/2 = 44. The smallest and largest observations are 0 and 63.

  5. Central tendency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_tendency

    the point minimizing the sum of distances to a set of sample points. This is the same as the median when applied to one-dimensional data, but it is not the same as taking the median of each dimension independently. It is not invariant to different rescaling of the different dimensions. Quadratic mean (often known as the root mean square)

  6. Weighted median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_median

    The lower weighted median is 2 with partition sums of 0.49 and 0.5, and the upper weighted median is 3 with partition sums of 0.5 and 0.25. In the case of working with integers or non-interval measures , the lower weighted median would be accepted since it is the lower weight of the pair and therefore keeps the partitions most equal.

  7. Aggregate function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregate_function

    In database management, an aggregate function or aggregation function is a function where multiple values are processed together to form a single summary statistic. (Figure 1) Entity relationship diagram representation of aggregation. Common aggregate functions include: Average (i.e., arithmetic mean) Count; Maximum; Median; Minimum; Mode ...

  9. Interquartile range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_range

    For a symmetric distribution (where the median equals the midhinge, the average of the first and third quartiles), half the IQR equals the median absolute deviation (MAD). The median is the corresponding measure of central tendency. The IQR can be used to identify outliers (see below). The IQR also may indicate the skewness of the dataset. [1]
