  2. 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. However, it ...

  3. Median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median

    1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 14. The median is 2 in this case, as is the mode, and it might be seen as a better indication of the center than the arithmetic mean of 4, which is larger than all but one of the values. However, the widely cited empirical relationship that the mean is shifted "further into the tail" of a distribution than the median is not ...

  4. Quartile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile

    If you do not choose the median as the new data point, then continue the Method 1 or 2 where you have started. If there are (4 n +1) data points, then the lower quartile is 25% of the n th data value plus 75% of the ( n +1)th data value; the upper quartile is 75% of the (3 n +1)th data point plus 25% of the (3 n +2)th data point.

  5. Mode (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    Taking the mean μ of X to be 0, the median of Y will be 1, independent of the standard deviation σ of X. This is so because X has a symmetric distribution, so its median is also 0. The transformation from X to Y is monotonic, and so we find the median e 0 = 1 for Y. When X has standard deviation σ = 0.25, the distribution of Y is weakly

  6. Median test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_test

    Median test (also Mood’s median-test, Westenberg-Mood median test or Brown-Mood median test) is a special case of Pearson's chi-squared test. It is a nonparametric test that tests the null hypothesis that the medians of the populations from which two or more samples are drawn are identical. The data in each sample are assigned to two groups ...

  7. Median absolute deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_absolute_deviation

    It has a median value of 2. The absolute deviations about 2 are (1, 1, 0, 0, 2, 4, 7) which in turn have a median value of 1 (because the sorted absolute deviations are (0, 0, 1, 1 , 2, 4, 7)). So the median absolute deviation for this data is 1.

  8. k-medians clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-medians_clustering

    In statistics, k-medians clustering [1] [2] is a cluster analysis algorithm. It is a generalization of the geometric median or 1-median algorithm, defined for a single cluster. k-medians is a variation of k-means clustering where instead of calculating the mean for each cluster to determine its centroid, one instead calculates the median.

  9. Hodges–Lehmann estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodges–Lehmann_estimator

    In statistics, the Hodges–Lehmann estimator is a robust and nonparametric estimator of a population's location parameter.For populations that are symmetric about one median, such as the Gaussian or normal distribution or the Student t-distribution, the Hodges–Lehmann estimator is a consistent and median-unbiased estimate of the population median.
