A median of a sequence π=x1,x2,…,xk of elements of a finite metric space (X,d) is an element x for which is minimum. The function M with domain the set of all finite sequences on X and defined by M(π)={x:x is a median of π} is called the median function on X, and is one of the most studied consensus functions. Based on previous characterizations of median sets M(π), a generalization of the median function is introduced and studied on various graphs and ordered sets. In addition, new results are presented for median graphs.
