In my previous posts, I described how to calculate weighted quantiles and their confidence intervals using the Harrell-Davis quantile estimator. This powerful technique allows applying quantile exponential smoothing and dispersion exponential smoothing for time series in order to get its moving properties. When we work with weighted samples, we need a way to calculate the effective samples size . Previously, I used the sum of all..

The RSS feed became a casualty of this work, but I finally got around to fixing it today, and I hope it gets picked up seamlessly for anyone who had subscribed in the past. PS. I've been publicly iterating on a series of posts on building developer tools ; I'..
