Given a vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ induced by a turnstile stream $S$, a non-negative function $G: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$, a perfect $G$-sampler outputs an index $i$ with probability $\frac{G(x_i)}{\sum_{j\in[n]}…

In this paper, we resolve the one-pass space complexity of $L_p$ sampling for $p \in (0,2)$. Given a stream of updates (insertions and deletions) to the coordinates of an underlying vector $f \in \mathbb{R}^n$, a perfect $L_p$ sampler must…

In the $G$-sampling problem, the goal is to output an index $i$ of a vector $f \in\mathbb{R}^n$, such that for all coordinates $j \in [n]$, \[\textbf{Pr}[i=j] = (1 \pm \epsilon) \frac{G(f_j)}{\sum_{k\in[n]} G(f_k)} + \gamma,\] where…

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…

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…
