    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-418?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13967736#comment-13967736 ] 

Venkatesha Murthy TS commented on MATH-418:
-------------------------------------------

placed a first snapshot into sonatype and have added tests similar to what is available for Percentile.
 Please guide me for next steps.

> The Percentile class can handle only in-memory data.
> It would be interesting to use an on-line algorithm to estimate quantiles as a storeless statistic.
> An example of such an algorithm is the exponentially weighted stochastic approximation  described in a 2000 paper by Fei Chen ,  Diane Lambert  and José C. Pinheiro "Incremental Quantile Estimation for Massive Tracking" which can be retrieved from CiteSeerX at [http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.105.1580].
