Count-min sketch

Count%E2%80%93min sketch

Count–min sketches are a probabilistic data structure used to store frequency tables of events in a stream of data. They use hash functions and sub-linear space, but may overcount some events due to collisions. It was invented in 2003 by Cormode and Muthukrishnan and is similar to counting Bloom filters from 1998.
