<br>
for some specific needs of a research project, I had to make a little<br>
change to r.neighbors (the target version was 7.8.5 but that's not essential).<br>
<br>
Essentially, the idea behind is computing first order statistics on partial<br>
populations as identified by selected quantiles (samples >= or <= of a<br>
threshold value of quantile). <br>
<br>
For that, I introduced average_ge_quantile and average_le_quantile operators modes.<br>

<br>
(the html file is still not updated)<br>
<br>
I'm not persuaded this is the most elegant way of doing this kind of things,<br>
maybe it would be better using an option (as in the case of -w for weighted<br>
operations) to compute average and possibly other statistics. Even, one could<br>
think in general to other multiple ways of selecting population on the base of<br>
quantiles/percentiles of population in a window.<br>
<br>
Any hint/opinion/alternative/critic about that? <br>
<br>
All this in the remote hypothesis that a pull request could have sense<br>
for such a kind of features.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
