Weighted median
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
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.
