Re: [Boost-users] [Accumulators] Retract samples

Dear all,

I am considering using Boost Accumulators for a moving window calculation. When a window would step from left to right, it should add the sample on the right side of the window and retract the sample on the left side on each step.

For weighted accumulators, it might be possible to use negative weights. But, since the accumulators do not appear to be intended for this use, there may be implementation details that invalidate the use of negative weights.

Is there a recommended way to retract samples in Boost Accumulators?

Thanks, Alex

Hi Alex, This is not the intended use of the accumulator library. Matthias
