      • quantileResultFromUnsorted

        public QuantileResult quantileResultFromUnsorted​(double level,
                                                         DoubleArray sample)
        Description copied from class: QuantileCalculationMethod
        Compute the quantile estimation.

        The quantile level is in decimal, i.e. 99% = 0.99 and 0 < level < 1 should be satisfied. This is measured from the bottom, that is, the quantile estimation with the level 99% corresponds to the smallest 99% observations and 1% of the observation are above that level.

        If index value computed from the level is outside of the sample data range, IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

        The sample observations are supposed to be unsorted.

        The quantile result produced contains the quantile value, the indices of the data points used to compute it as well as the weights assigned to each point in the computation. The indices are based on the original, unsorted array. Additionally, the indices start from 0 and so do not need to be shifted to account for java indexing, when using them to reference the data points in the quantile calculation.

        Overrides:
        quantileResultFromUnsorted in class QuantileCalculationMethod
        Parameters:
        level - the quantile level
        sample - the sample observations
        Returns:
        the quantile estimation

        Description copied from class: QuantileCalculationMethod
        Compute the quantile estimation.

        The quantile level is in decimal, i.e. 99% = 0.99 and 0 < level < 1 should be satisfied. This is measured from the bottom, that is, the quantile estimation with the level 99% corresponds to the smallest 99% observations and 1% of the observation are above that level.

        If index value computed from the level is outside of the sample data range, the nearest data point is used, i.e., quantile is computed with flat extrapolation.

        The sample observations are supposed to be unsorted.

        The quantile result produced contains the quantile value, the indices of the data points used to compute it as well as the weights assigned to each point in the computation. The indices are based on the original, unsorted array.
