Hear me out: I found a better way to estimate the median

Towards Data Science

People often use percentiles to summarize data. The median is the 50-th percentile and is known to be very robust to outliers in the data (as opposed to the mean). In addition, it represents a…

Calculating Median in MySQL

Level Up Coding

While sharpening my SQL skills online, I was asked to calculate the median of a column in a MySQL table by brute force (MySQL). Normally, I’d pop that data into Pandas and be done with it quickly…

Mean Estimation: Median of Means

Towards Data Science

If we break it down, machine learning comes back to making statistical inferences. Inference means making statements about an unknown distribution based on a sample generated by that same…

Median from Data Stream

Python in Plain English

To find the median we sort the elements and find the middle one (or the average of two middle elements). The below diagram is an illustration with an example of how do we find the median. Since we…

When the Median is Favorable to the Mean

Towards Data Science

The mean and the median are two of the most common features used when describing numerical data. The two are known as measures of central tendency, meaning they describe a set of data by shedding…

Why Median is (Sometimes) Better than Mean

Towards Data Science

Starting my adventure in Data Analysis, of course, I’ve found it very necessary to know the main statistical approaches to data description. As I dived into it, I realized that it’s difficult for me…

Mean, Median, and Mode

Analytics Vidhya

In Machine Learning (and in mathematics) there are often three values that interests us: Mean, Median and Mode. Mean — It is the average value of the dataset. At its basic level, to calculate the…

Mean or median? Choose based on the decision, not the distribution

Towards Data Science

Even for skewed data, the mean sometimes leads to better decisions Continue reading on Towards Data Science

torch.median

PyTorch documentation

Returns the median of the values in input . Note The median is not unique for input tensors with an even number of elements. In this case the lower of the two medians is returned. To compute the mean ...

How to estimate the standard error of the median: The Bootstrap Strategy

Towards Data Science

In this article, I will discuss the method we can use to estimate the standard error of the median. I will first specify some definitions and discuss how we can estimate the standard error of the…
