A distributed quantile estimation algorithm of heavy-tailed distribution with massive datasets

Quantile estimation with big data is still a challenging problem in statistics. In this paper we introduce a distributed algorithm for estimating high quantiles of heavy-tailed distributions with massive datasets. The key idea of the algorithm is to apply the alternating direction method of multipli...
