In the kernel density estimation (KDE) problem, we are given a set $X$ of data points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, a kernel function $k: \mathbb{R}^d \times \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, and a query point $\mathbf{q} \in \mathbb{R}^d$, and…
Consistent hashing is a technique for distributing data across a network of nodes in a way that minimizes reorganization when nodes join or leave the network. It is extensively applied in modern distributed systems as a fundamental…
In data stream applications, one of the critical issues is to estimate the frequency of each item in the specific multiset. The multiset means that each item in this set can appear multiple times. The data streams in many applications are…
