This is a two-parts tutorial on The Self-Weighting Model (SWM), available at
In part 1, we show how the model provides a solution to the problem of computing valid averages from non additive quantities. In part 2, we derive the model and show how it could be used for a broad range of engineering, science, information retrieval, and data mining problems where conditional weighted means must be computed.
