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。

通常，我们不仅需要为整个表计算Median，还需要为与ID相关的聚合计算Median。换句话说，计算表中每个ID的中位数，其中每个ID有许多记录。(良好的性能和工作在许多SQL +修复偶数和赔率的问题，更多关于不同的中值方法的性能https://sqlperformance.com/2012/08/t-sql-queries/median)
SELECT our_id, AVG(1.0 * our_val) as Median
FROM
( SELECT our_id, our_val,
COUNT(*) OVER (PARTITION BY our_id) AS cnt,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY our_id ORDER BY our_val) AS rn
FROM our_table
) AS x
WHERE rn IN ((cnt + 1)/2, (cnt + 2)/2) GROUP BY our_id;

按维度分组的中位数:
SELECT your_dimension, avg(t1.val) as median_val FROM (
SELECT @rownum:=@rownum+1 AS `row_number`,
IF(@dim <> d.your_dimension, @rownum := 0, NULL),
@dim := d.your_dimension AS your_dimension,
d.val
FROM data d, (SELECT @rownum:=0) r, (SELECT @dim := 'something_unreal') d
WHERE 1
-- put some where clause here
ORDER BY d.your_dimension, d.val
) as t1
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT d.your_dimension,
count(*) as total_rows
FROM data d
WHERE 1
-- put same where clause here
GROUP BY d.your_dimension
) as t2 USING(your_dimension)
WHERE 1
AND t1.row_number in ( floor((total_rows+1)/2), floor((total_rows+2)/2) )
GROUP BY your_dimension;

我使用下表的解决方案在MySQL:
CREATE TABLE transactions (
transaction_id int , user_id int , merchant_name varchar(255), transaction_date date , amount int
);
INSERT INTO transactions (transaction_id, user_id, merchant_name, transaction_date, amount)
VALUES (1, 1 ,'abc', '2015-08-17', 100),(2, 2, 'ced', '2015-2-17', 100),(3, 1, 'def', '2015-2-16', 121),
(4, 1 ,'ced', '2015-3-17', 110),(5, 1, 'ced', '2015-3-17', 150),(6, 2 ,'abc', '2015-4-17', 130),
(7, 3 ,'ced', '2015-12-17', 10),(8, 3 ,'abc', '2015-8-17', 100),(9, 2 ,'abc', '2015-12-17', 140),(10, 1,'abc', '2015-9-17', 100),
(11, 1 ,'abc', '2015-08-17', 121),(12, 2 ,'ced', '2015-12-23', 130),(13, 1 ,'def', '2015-12-23', 13),(3, 4, 'abc', '2015-2-16', 120),(3, 4, 'def', '2015-2-16', 121),(3, 4, 'ced', '2015-2-16', 121);
计算“金额”列的中位数:
WITH Numbered AS
(
SELECT *, COUNT(*) OVER () AS TotatRecords,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY amount) AS RowNum
FROM transactions
)
SELECT Avg(amount)
FROM Numbered
WHERE RowNum IN ( FLOOR((TotatRecords+1)/2), FLOOR((TotatRecords+2)/2) )
;
TotalRecords = 16 and Median = 120.5000
此查询将适用于两种情况，即偶数和奇数记录。
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
**
MariaDB / MySQL:
SELECT AVG(dd.val) as median_val
FROM (
SELECT d.val, @rownum:=@rownum+1 as `row_number`, @total_rows:=@rownum
FROM data d, (SELECT @rownum:=0) r
WHERE d.val is NOT NULL
-- put some where clause here
ORDER BY d.val
) as dd
WHERE dd.row_number IN ( FLOOR((@total_rows+1)/2), FLOOR((@total_rows+2)/2) );
Steve Cohen指出，在第一次传递之后，@rownum将包含总行数。这可用于确定中值，因此不需要第二次传递或连接。
此外，AVG(dd.val)和dd.row_number IN(…)用于在有偶数条记录时正确地产生中位数。推理:
SELECT FLOOR((3+1)/2),FLOOR((3+2)/2); -- when total_rows is 3, avg rows 2 and 2
SELECT FLOOR((4+1)/2),FLOOR((4+2)/2); -- when total_rows is 4, avg rows 2 and 3
最后，MariaDB 10.3.3+包含一个MEDIAN函数
