  2. 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.

  3. Winsorizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winsorizing

    For instance, the 10% trimmed mean is the average of the 5th to 95th percentile of the data, while the 90% winsorized mean sets the bottom 5% to the 5th percentile, the top 5% to the 95th percentile, and then averages the data. Winsorizing thus does not change the total number of values in the data set, N.

  4. Percentile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile

    The 25th percentile is also known as the first quartile (Q 1), the 50th percentile as the median or second quartile (Q 2), and the 75th percentile as the third quartile (Q 3). For example, the 50th percentile (median) is the score below (or at or below , depending on the definition) which 50% of the scores in the distribution are found.

  5. Weighted median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_median

    In statistics, a weighted median of a sample is the 50% weighted percentile. [1] [2] [3] It was first proposed by F. Y. Edgeworth in 1888. [4] [5] Like the median, it is useful as an estimator of central tendency, robust against outliers. It allows for non-uniform statistical weights related to, e.g., varying precision measurements in the sample.

  6. Percentile rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile_rank

    The figure illustrates the percentile rank computation and shows how the 0.5 × F term in the formula ensures that the percentile rank reflects a percentage of scores less than the specified score. For example, for the 10 scores shown in the figure, 60% of them are below a score of 4 (five less than 4 and half of the two equal to 4) and 95% are ...

  7. Grouped data - Wikipedia

    The students may be 10 years old, 11 years old or 12 years old. These are the age groups, 10, 11, and 12. Note that the students in age group 10 are from 10 years and 0 days, to 10 years and 364 days old, and their average age is 10.5 years old if we look at age in a continuous scale. The grouped data looks like:

  8. Quartile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile

    The first quartile (Q 1) is defined as the 25th percentile where lowest 25% data is below this point. It is also known as the lower quartile. The second quartile (Q 2) is the median of a data set; thus 50% of the data lies below this point. The third quartile (Q 3) is the 75th percentile where

  9. Interquartile range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_range

    It is defined as the difference between the 75th and 25th percentiles of the data. [2] [3] [4] To calculate the IQR, the data set is divided into quartiles, or four rank-ordered even parts via linear interpolation. [1] These quartiles are denoted by Q 1 (also called the lower quartile), Q 2 (the median), and Q 3 (also called the upper quartile).
