The quarter median
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract We introduce and discuss a multivariate version of the classical median that is based on an equipartition property with respect to quarter spaces. These arise as pairwise intersections half-spaces associated coordinate hyperplanes orthogonal basis. obtain results existence, equivariance, asymptotic normality.

متن کاملThe Median Is the Message : toward the Fréchet Median
One could argue that the long-standing controversy over the relative merits of the median and mean is something of a touchstone of early statistics. The touchstone of medieval alchemy was basonite, a variety of quartz used to test the purity of gold alloys ; striking an alloy against the surface of the stone revealed the quality of the alloy by the color of the mark left on the stone. Likewise,...
متن کاملSplitting a predictor at the upper quarter or third and the lower quarter or third
A linear regression of y on x can be approximated by a simple difference: the average values of y corresponding to the highest quarter or third of x, minus the average values of y corresponding to the lowest quarter or third of x. A simple theoretical analysis shows this comparison performs reasonably well, with 80%–90% efficiency compared to the linear regression if the predictor is uniformly ...
