用MySQL计算中位数最简单(希望不会太慢)的方法是什么?我已经使用AVG(x)来寻找平均值,但我很难找到一个简单的方法来计算中位数。现在,我将所有的行返回到PHP,进行排序,然后选择中间的行,但是肯定有一些简单的方法可以在一个MySQL查询中完成它。

示例数据:

id | val
--------
 1    4
 2    7
 3    2
 4    2
 5    9
 6    8
 7    3

对val排序得到2 2 3 4 7 8 9,因此中位数应该是4,而SELECT AVG(val) == 5。

归档完美中位数的单个查询:

SELECT 
COUNT(*) as total_rows, 
IF(count(*)%2 = 1, CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(val ORDER BY val SEPARATOR ','), ',', 50/100 * COUNT(*)), ',', -1) AS DECIMAL), ROUND((CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(val ORDER BY val SEPARATOR ','), ',', 50/100 * COUNT(*) + 1), ',', -1) AS DECIMAL) + CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX( GROUP_CONCAT(val ORDER BY val SEPARATOR ','), ',', 50/100 * COUNT(*)), ',', -1) AS DECIMAL)) / 2)) as median, 
AVG(val) as average 
FROM 
data

我发现这个答案非常有用——https://www.eversql.com/how-to-calculate-median-value-in-mysql-using-a-simple-sql-query/

SET @rowindex := -1;

SELECT
   AVG(g.grade)
FROM
   (SELECT @rowindex:=@rowindex + 1 AS rowindex,
       grades.grade AS grade
    FROM grades
    ORDER BY grades.grade) AS g
WHERE
g.rowindex IN (FLOOR(@rowindex / 2) , CEIL(@rowindex / 2));

我使用了两个查询方法:

第一个得到count, min, Max和avg 第二个语句(预处理语句)使用“LIMIT @count/ 2,1”和“ORDER BY ..”子句来获得中值

它们被包装在函数defn中,因此可以从一次调用中返回所有值。

如果您的范围是静态的,并且数据不经常更改,那么预先计算/存储这些值并使用存储的值,而不是每次都从头查询,可能会更有效。

我建议一个更快的方法。

获取行数:

SELECT CEIL(COUNT(*)/2);

然后取排序子查询的中间值:

SELECT max(val) FROM (SELECT val FROM data ORDER BY val limit @middlevalue);

我用5x10e6的随机数数据集进行了测试,它将在10秒内找到中位数。

试着这样做:

SELECT  
CAST (AVG(val) AS DECIMAL(10,4))
FROM
(
    SELECT 
    val,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY val ) -1 AS rn,
    COUNT(1) OVER () -1 AS cnt
    FROM STATION
) as tmp
WHERE rn IN (FLOOR(cnt/2),CEILING (cnt/2))

注意:-1的原因是使它的索引为0 .i。E行号 现在从0开始,而不是1

ORACLE的简单解决方案:

SELECT ROUND(MEDIAN(Lat_N), 4) FROM Station;

简单的解决方案,理解MySQL:

select case MOD(count(lat_n),2) 
when 1 then (select round(S.LAT_N,4) from station S where (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N < S.LAT_N ) = (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N > S.LAT_N))
else (select round(AVG(S.LAT_N),4) from station S where 1 = (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N < S.LAT_N ) - (select count(Lat_N) from station where Lat_N > S.LAT_N))
end from station;

解释

STATION是表名。LAT_N是具有数值的列名

假设站表中有101条记录(奇数)。这意味着如果表以asc或desc排序,则中位数是第51条记录。

In above query for every S.LAT_N of S table I am creating two tables. One for number of LAT_N values less than S.LAT_N and another for number of LAT_N values greater than S.LAT_N. Later I am comparing these two tables and if they are matched then I am selecting that S.LAT_N value. When I check for 51st records there are 50 values less than 51st record and there 50 records greater than 51st record. As you see, there are 50 records in both tables. So this is our answer. For every other record there are different number of records in two tables created for comparison. So, only 51st record meets the condition.

现在假设站表中有100条记录(偶数)。这意味着如果表以asc或desc排序,则中位数是第50条和第51条记录的平均值。

Same as odd logic I am creating two tables. One for number of LAT_N values less than S.LAT_N and another for number of LAT_N values greater than S.LAT_N. Later I am comparing these two tables and if their difference is equal to 1 then I am selecting that S.LAT_N value and find the average. When I check for 50th records there are 49 values less than 50th record and there 51 records greater than 50th record. As you see, there is difference of 1 record in both tables. So this(50th record) is our 1st record for average. Similarly, When I check for 51st records there are 50 values less than 51st record and there 49 records greater than 51st record. As you see, there is difference of 1 record in both tables. So this(51st record) is our 2nd record for average. For every other record there are different number of records in two tables created for comparison. So, only 50th and 51st records meet the condition.
