I'm happy for the shape to change, but would like it to remain similar.
Without a formula, this would be possible. I.e. if I could firmly hold the end points, and then bash the line in-between about a little bit so it followed the vaguely same shape, but was less steep in the first half, and steeper in the second half. Then model the line et voila. New distribution with the correct median, that looks similar to the original.
That's kind of faking new points based on the old point, essentially.
I just wondered if there was a mathematical way to do the bashing.
