Members

InvertedCdf1 Inverse of empirical distribution function.
AveragedInvertedCdf2 Inverse of empirical distribution function but with averaging at discontinuities.
ClosestObservation3 The nearest even order statistic. This is the definition used by the SAS software.
InterpolatedInvertedCdf4 Linear interpolation of the empirical CDF.
Hazen5 A piecewise linear function where the knots are the values midway through the steps of the empirical CDF. This is popular amongst hydrologists.
Minitab6 Same as Weibull. This definition is used by MiniTab.
Spss6 Same as Weibull. This definition is used by SPSS.
Weibull6 A definition proposed by Weibull in 1939, resulting in equally likely segments. This definition is used by Minitab and SPSS.
R7 Same as Default. This definition is used by R.
Default7 The default quantile method in R.
MedianUnbiased8 A method where the resulting quantile estimates are approximately median-unbiased regardless of the distribution of x.
NormalUnbiased9 A method where the resulting quantile estimates are approximately unbiased for the expected order statistics if x is normally distributed.
