Abstract: In this paper, a new algorithm estimating the number of active flows in a data stream is proposed. This algorithm adapts the HyperLogLog algorithm of Flajolet et al. to data stream ...

Today we're looking at HyperLogLog, an algorithm that leverages random chance to count the number of distinct items are in a dataset. It does this by tracking the longest run of zeros in a binary ...

Jelani Nelson designs clever algorithms that only have to remember slivers of massive data sets. He also teaches kids in Ethiopia how to code. For Jelani Nelson, algorithms represent a wide-open ...

These important questions are often covered here on Search Engine Journal in very useful articles. But it’s important to not just understand what tactics might be working to help you rank. You need to ...

Evolution of the HyperLogLog Estimator The popular HyperLogLog estimator is part of a larger family of LogLog algorithms. The HyperLogLog estimator is most closely based on the LogLog estimator as you ...

The popular HyperLogLog estimator is part of a larger family of LogLog algorithms. The HyperLogLog estimator is most closely based on the LogLog estimator as you will see. However, all of the LogLog ...
