Gilles Sadowski commented on MATH-1551:
---------------------------------------
Resolving this issue as "Later" is confusing: It would usually mean than the
team of "regular" developers will handle it (which is not correct in this
case). If you intend to further work on the feature, you should reopen this
report and have the issue assigned to you.
> Compute Percentile with Weighted Samples
> ----------------------------------------

> Key: MATH-1551
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1551
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: allen yu
> Priority: Major
> Labels: features, newbie
> Fix For: 4.0
>
> Attachments: Percentile.java
>
>
> The class Percentile only support estimation on non-weighted samples.
> I've implement some function to estimate percentiles of weighted samples.
> here is the reference:

> When all weights are equal to each other, it works like estimation on
> non-weighted samples under R-7.
> I can't find formulas for other rules but at least, now it can evaluate
> percentile for weighted samples.
