Abstract
A system and methods for displaying data distribution information for time-series data is described. The methods include computing a condensed quantile function that may be used to generate approximate histograms for the time-series data, while decreasing the data storage requirements for generating a series of histograms for time-series data. The methods further include displaying the data distribution information using stack-bar histograms, many of which may be shown in a single display to permit a user to discern trends in the data distribution information. Methods for merging condensed quantile function tables are also described.
