We present an algorithm for computing $F_p$, the $p$th moment of an $n$-dimensional frequency vector of a data stream, for $2 < p < \log (n) $, to within $1\pm \epsilon$ factors, $\epsilon \in [n^{-1/p},1]$ with high constant probability.…

We show an improved lower bound for the Fp estimation problem in a data stream setting for p>2. A data stream is a sequence of items from the domain [n] with possible repetitions. The frequency vector x is an n-dimensional non-negative…

For each $p \in (0,2]$, we present a randomized algorithm that returns an $\epsilon$-approximation of the $p$th frequency moment of a data stream $F_p = \sum_{i = 1}^n \abs{f_i}^p$. The algorithm requires space $O(\epsilon^{-2} \log…

We study the classical problem of moment estimation of an underlying vector whose $n$ coordinates are implicitly defined through a series of updates in a data stream. We show that if the updates to the vector arrive in the random-order…

Estimating the p-th frequency moment of data stream is a very heavily studied problem. The problem is actually trivial when p = 1, assuming the strict Turnstile model. The sample complexity of our proposed algorithm is essentially O(1) near…

A data stream is viewed as a sequence of $M$ updates of the form $(\text{index},i,v)$ to an $n$-dimensional integer frequency vector $f$, where the update changes $f_i$ to $f_i + v$, and $v$ is an integer and assumed to be in $\{-m, ...,…

The problem of estimating the pth moment F_p (p nonnegative and real) in data streams is as follows. There is a vector x which starts at 0, and many updates of the form x_i <-- x_i + v come sequentially in a stream. The algorithm also…

We consider the heavy-hitters and $F_p$ moment estimation problems in the sliding window model. For $F_p$ moment estimation with $1<p\leq 2$, we show that it is possible to give a $(1\pm \epsilon)$ multiplicative approximation to the $F_p$…

We give a space-optimal algorithm with update time O(log^2(1/eps)loglog(1/eps)) for (1+eps)-approximating the pth frequency moment, 0 < p < 2, of a length-n vector updated in a data stream. This provides a nearly exponential improvement in…

Estimating the first moment of a data stream defined as $F_1 = \sum_{i \in \{1, 2, \ldots, n\}} \abs{f_i}$ to within $1 \pm \epsilon$-relative error with high probability is a basic and influential problem in data stream processing. A tight…

We consider the problem of sketching the $p$-th frequency moment of a vector, $p>2$, with multiplicative error at most $1\pm \epsilon$ and \emph{with high confidence} $1-\delta$. Despite the long sequence of work on this problem, tight…

One of the oldest problems in the data stream model is to approximate the $p$-th moment $\|\mathcal{X}\|_p^p = \sum_{i=1}^n |\mathcal{X}_i|^p$ of an underlying vector $\mathcal{X} \in \mathbb{R}^n$, which is presented as a sequence of…

The problem of estimating frequency moments of a data stream has attracted a lot of attention since the onset of streaming algorithms [AMS99]. While the space complexity for approximately computing the $p^{\rm th}$ moment, for $p\in(0,2]$…

Estimating the second frequency moment of a stream up to $(1\pm\varepsilon)$ multiplicative error requires at most $O(\log n / \varepsilon^2)$ bits of space, due to a seminal result of Alon, Matias, and Szegedy. It is also known that at…

In this paper we consider the problem of approximating frequency moments in the streaming model. Given a stream $D = \{p_1,p_2,\dots,p_m\}$ of numbers from $\{1,\dots, n\}$, a frequency of $i$ is defined as $f_i = |\{j: p_j = i\}|$. The…

We study $\ell_p$ sampling and frequency moment estimation in a single-pass insertion-only data stream. For $p \in (0,2)$, we present a nearly space-optimal approximate $\ell_p$ sampler that uses $\widetilde{O}(\log n \log(1/\delta))$ bits…

The traditional requirement for a randomized streaming algorithm is just {\em one-shot}, i.e., algorithm should be correct (within the stated $\eps$-error bound) at the end of the stream. In this paper, we study the {\em tracking} problem,…

In this paper, we propose a modified Newton-Raphson algorithm to estimate the frequency parameter in the fundamental frequency model in presence of an additive stationary error. The proposed estimator is super efficient in nature in the…
