BUILT-IN SYMBOL Mean

Mean[data]

gives the mean estimate of the elements in data.

Mean[dist]

gives the mean of the distribution dist.

Details Examplesopen allclose all Basic Examples  (5)

Mean of numeric values:

Mean of symbolic values:

Means of elements in each column:

Mean of a list of dates:

Mean of a parametric distribution:

Scope  (22) Basic Uses  (6)

Exact input yields exact output:

Approximate input yields approximate output:

Find the mean of WeightedData:

Find the mean of EventData:

Find the mean of a TimeSeries:

The mean depends only on the values:

Compute a weighted mean:

Find the mean of data involving quantities:

Array Data  (5)

Mean for a matrix gives columnwise means:

Mean for a arrays gives columnwise means at the first level:

Works with large arrays:

When the input is an Association, Mean works on its values:

SparseArray data can be used just like dense arrays:

Find mean of a QuantityArray:

Image and Audio Data  (2)

Channel-wise mean value of an RGB image:

Mean intensity value of a grayscale image:

On audio objects, Mean works channel-wise:

Date and Time  (4)

Compute mean of dates:

Compute the weighted mean of dates:

Compute the mean of dates given in different calendars:

The mean is given in one of the input calendars:

Compute the mean of times:

List of times with different time zone specifications:

Distributions and Processes  (5)

Find the mean for univariate distributions:

Multivariate distributions:

Mean for derived distributions:

Data distribution:

Mean for distributions with quantities:

Mean function for a continuous-time random and discrete-state process:

Find the mean of TemporalData at some time t=0.5:

Find the mean function together with all the simulations:

Applications  (11) Basic Applications  (5)

The mean represents the center of mass for a distribution:

The mean for distributions without a single mode:

The mean for multivariate distributions:

Mean values of cells in a sequence of steps of 2D cellular automaton evolution:

Compute means for slices of a collection of paths of a random process:

Choose a few slice times:

Plot means over these paths:

Applications  (6)

Find the mean height for the children in a class:

Find the mean height for the children in a class:

Find the mean strength for 480 samples of ceramic material:

Plot a Histogram for the data with mean position highlighted:

Compute the probability that the strength exceeds the mean:

Smooth an irregularly spaced time series by computing a moving mean:

A 90-day moving mean:

A vacuum system in a small electron accelerator contains 20 vacuum bulbs arranged in a circle. The vacuum system fails if at least 3 adjacent vacuum bulbs fail:

Plot the survival function:

Compute the mean time to failure:

Properties & Relations  (17) Possible Issues  (1)

Outliers can have a disproportionate effect on Mean:

Use TrimmedMean to ignore a fraction of the smallest and largest elements:

Use Median as something much less sensitive to outliers:

Neat Examples  (1)
