Approximate quantiles and the order of the stream
Recently, there has been an increased focus on modeling uncertainty by distributions. Suppose we wish to compute a function of a stream whose elements are samples drawn independen...

A Fast Algorithm for Approximate Quantiles in High Speed Data Streams
We present a fast algorithm for computing approximate quantiles in high speed data streams with deterministic error bounds. For data streams of size N where N is unknown in advanc...
