| CumulativePercent | http://rdf-vocabulary.ddialliance.org/cv/AggregationMethod/1.0.0/4dfc4f5 | Cumulative Percent | The total of a frequency and all frequencies below it in a frequency distribution; the "running total" of frequencies [the maximum value is 100%]. |
| PercentileRank | http://rdf-vocabulary.ddialliance.org/cv/AggregationMethod/1.0.0/bdc1c84 | Percentile Rank | The percentile rank of a item is the percentage of items in its frequency distribution which are lower [cannot reach 100%]. |
