Weighted Hi-Median — wgt.himedian • robustbase

Compute the weighted Hi-Median of x.

wgt.himedian(x, weights = rep(1, n))

Arguments

x: numeric vector
weights: numeric vector of weights; of the same length as x.

Note

this is rather a by-product of the code used in Sn and Qn. We currently plan to replace it with more general weighted quantiles.

median; also wtd.quantile from package Hmisc.

Examples

x <- c(1:6, 20)
median(x) ## 4
#> [1] 4
stopifnot(all.equal(4, wgt.himedian(x)),
          all.equal(6, wgt.himedian(x, c(rep(1,6), 5))))
