We present an algorithm for computing Fp, the pth moment of an n-dimensional frequency vector of a data stream, for p > 2, to within 1 ± factors, ∈ (0, 1] with high constant...
We consider the read/write streams model, an extension of the standard data stream model in which an algorithm can create and manipulate multiple read/write streams in addition to...
We give a 1-pass ~O(m1-2/k )-space algorithm for computing the k-th frequency moment of a data stream for any real k > 2. Together with the lower bounds of [1, 2, 4], this reso...
Estimating frequency moments and Lp distances are well studied problems in the adversarial data stream model and tight space bounds are known for these two problems. There has been...
We consider the problem of computing information theoretic functions such as entropy on a data stream, using sublinear space. Our first result deals with a measure we call the &quo...
