根据MSDN, Median在Transact-SQL中不能作为聚合函数使用。但是,我想知道是否可以创建此功能(使用create Aggregate函数、用户定义函数或其他方法)。
最好的方法(如果可能的话)是什么——允许在聚合查询中计算中值(假设是数值数据类型)?

通常情况下,我们不仅需要为整个表计算Median,还需要为与某个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。(基于@gdoron编辑的解决方案:性能良好,适用于许多SQL)
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 rnk
FROM our_table
) AS x
WHERE rnk IN ((cnt + 1)/2, (cnt + 2)/2) GROUP BY our_id;
希望能有所帮助。

虽然Justin grant的解决方案看起来很可靠,但我发现当您在给定的分区键中有许多重复值时,ASC重复值的行号最终会不按顺序排列,因此它们不能正确对齐。
以下是我的研究结果的一个片段:
KEY VALUE ROWA ROWD
13 2 22 182
13 1 6 183
13 1 7 184
13 1 8 185
13 1 9 186
13 1 10 187
13 1 11 188
13 1 12 189
13 0 1 190
13 0 2 191
13 0 3 192
13 0 4 193
13 0 5 194
我使用Justin的代码作为这个解决方案的基础。尽管考虑到使用多个派生表效率不高,但它确实解决了我遇到的行排序问题。任何改进都会受到欢迎,因为我在T-SQL方面不是那么有经验。
SELECT PKEY, cast(AVG(VALUE)as decimal(5,2)) as MEDIANVALUE
FROM
(
SELECT PKEY,VALUE,ROWA,ROWD,
'FLAG' = (CASE WHEN ROWA IN (ROWD,ROWD-1,ROWD+1) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
FROM
(
SELECT
PKEY,
cast(VALUE as decimal(5,2)) as VALUE,
ROWA,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PKEY ORDER BY ROWA DESC) as ROWD
FROM
(
SELECT
PKEY,
VALUE,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PKEY ORDER BY VALUE ASC,PKEY ASC ) as ROWA
FROM [MTEST]
)T1
)T2
)T3
WHERE FLAG = '1'
GROUP BY PKEY
ORDER BY PKEY
如果你想在SQL Server中使用创建聚合函数,这是如何做到的。这样做的好处是能够编写干净的查询。注意,这个过程可以很容易地计算一个百分位值。
创建一个新的Visual Studio项目,并将目标框架设置为。net 3.5(这是针对SQL 2008的,在SQL 2012中可能有所不同)。然后创建一个类文件,并放入以下代码或c#等效代码:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Server
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Imports System.IO
<Serializable>
<SqlUserDefinedAggregate(Format.UserDefined, IsInvariantToNulls:=True, IsInvariantToDuplicates:=False, _
IsInvariantToOrder:=True, MaxByteSize:=-1, IsNullIfEmpty:=True)>
Public Class Median
Implements IBinarySerialize
Private _items As List(Of Decimal)
Public Sub Init()
_items = New List(Of Decimal)()
End Sub
Public Sub Accumulate(value As SqlDecimal)
If Not value.IsNull Then
_items.Add(value.Value)
End If
End Sub
Public Sub Merge(other As Median)
If other._items IsNot Nothing Then
_items.AddRange(other._items)
End If
End Sub
Public Function Terminate() As SqlDecimal
If _items.Count <> 0 Then
Dim result As Decimal
_items = _items.OrderBy(Function(i) i).ToList()
If _items.Count Mod 2 = 0 Then
result = ((_items((_items.Count / 2) - 1)) + (_items(_items.Count / 2))) / 2@
Else
result = _items((_items.Count - 1) / 2)
End If
Return New SqlDecimal(result)
Else
Return New SqlDecimal()
End If
End Function
Public Sub Read(r As BinaryReader) Implements IBinarySerialize.Read
'deserialize it from a string
Dim list = r.ReadString()
_items = New List(Of Decimal)
For Each value In list.Split(","c)
Dim number As Decimal
If Decimal.TryParse(value, number) Then
_items.Add(number)
End If
Next
End Sub
Public Sub Write(w As BinaryWriter) Implements IBinarySerialize.Write
'serialize the list to a string
Dim list = ""
For Each item In _items
If list <> "" Then
list += ","
End If
list += item.ToString()
Next
w.Write(list)
End Sub
End Class
然后编译它,并将DLL和PDB文件复制到您的SQL Server机器,在SQL Server中运行以下命令:
CREATE ASSEMBLY CustomAggregate FROM '{path to your DLL}'
WITH PERMISSION_SET=SAFE;
GO
CREATE AGGREGATE Median(@value decimal(9, 3))
RETURNS decimal(9, 3)
EXTERNAL NAME [CustomAggregate].[{namespace of your DLL}.Median];
GO
然后你可以写一个查询来计算中位数,就像这样: SELECT dbo.Median(Field) FROM Table
我最初的回答是:
select max(my_column) as [my_column], quartile
from (select my_column, ntile(4) over (order by my_column) as [quartile]
from my_table) i
--where quartile = 2
group by quartile
这将使您一举获得中位数和四分位范围。如果你真的只想要一行作为中值,那么取消注释where子句。
当你把它放入解释计划时,60%的工作是对数据进行排序,这在计算像这样的位置依赖统计数据时是不可避免的。
我修改了答案,以遵循Robert Ševčík-Robajz在下面的评论中提出的优秀建议:
;with PartitionedData as
(select my_column, ntile(10) over (order by my_column) as [percentile]
from my_table),
MinimaAndMaxima as
(select min(my_column) as [low], max(my_column) as [high], percentile
from PartitionedData
group by percentile)
select
case
when b.percentile = 10 then cast(b.high as decimal(18,2))
else cast((a.low + b.high) as decimal(18,2)) / 2
end as [value], --b.high, a.low,
b.percentile
from MinimaAndMaxima a
join MinimaAndMaxima b on (a.percentile -1 = b.percentile) or (a.percentile = 10 and b.percentile = 10)
--where b.percentile = 5
当您有偶数个数据项时,这应该计算正确的中位数和百分比值。同样,如果您只想要中位数而不是整个百分位数分布,请取消最后的where子句的注释。
下面的查询从一列中的值列表返回中位数。它不能作为聚合函数使用,也不能与聚合函数一起使用,但仍然可以在内部select中使用带有WHERE子句的子查询。
SQL Server 2005+:
SELECT TOP 1 value from
(
SELECT TOP 50 PERCENT value
FROM table_name
ORDER BY value
)for_median
ORDER BY value DESC
在我的解决方案表中是一个只有分数列的学生表,我正在计算分数的中位数,这个解决方案是基于SQL server 2019的
with total_c as ( --Total_c CTE counts total number of rows in a table
select count(*) as n from student
),
even as ( --Even CTE extract two middle rows if the number of rows are even
select marks from student
order by marks
offset (select n from total_c)/2 -1 rows
fetch next 2 rows only
),
odd as ( --Odd CTE extract middle row if the number of rows are odd
select marks from student
order by marks
offset (select n + 1 from total_c)/2 -1 rows
fetch next 1 rows only
)
--Case statement helps to select odd or even CTE based on number of rows
select
case when n%2 = 0 then (select avg(cast(marks as float)) from even)
else (select marks from odd)
end as med_marks
from total_c
