Description

Extended algorithm for estimation of several quantiles without storing samples. Assume that quantiles are to be estimated. Instead of storing the whole sample cumulative distribution, the algorithm maintains only principal markers and middle markers, whose positions are updated with each sample and whose heights are adjusted (if necessary) using a piecewise-parablic formula. The heights of these central markers are the current estimates of the quantiles and returned as an iterator range.

The extended algorithm generalizes the algorithm of
