I'm using the Apache Commons Math library to do some statistical analysis and it is working great so far. According to the documentation, I can accumulate the statistics produced by multiple SummaryStatistics instances using the convenient AggregateSummaryStatistics type.

However, the statistic I'm interested on is the Median, which I'm currently computing through the getPercentile() method of the DescriptiveStatistics type.

Do you know if there's an equivalent of the AggregateSummaryStatistics for DescriptiveStatistics instances? So far I had no luck browsing the library's Javadoc, and the alternative of having a separate DescriptiveStatistics instance for accumulation doesn't seem elegant.

As of version 3.5 of Commons Math, there is no way to do this. Watch https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1298 for updates.
