Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 86.0/100, a mean average of 85.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 86.0/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 12.4.

Woo, I like your taste
This is a pretty good well developed chart so far! I can't wait to see the other 50 albums you put!
btener11 05/15/2013 20:48 | #76227
overall, very nice chart. the albums i don't like here, i really don't like (kings of leon, my morning jacket), but the ones i like (most of them, esp. closer, grace, vu & nico) i really like.
Arctic Monkeys over the Strokes? Interesting.I'd say this chart is bolder than people are giving it credit for!

Like others have said, the chart seems "safe" with no surprises, but it's a great chart with fantastic selections. Good job.

Good chart with lots of favorites. It would have been nice to see some surprises, but great collection nonetheless
