  • Binary Index Trees a Cumulative Frequency Array Allows Us To
    Binary Index Trees A cumulative frequency array allows us to calculate the sum of the range of values in O(1), as long as there are no changes to the data once the queries start. But consider situations where we might change the value at an index in an array, then query for the sum of a range of values in the array, followed by some more changes and more queries. In this sort of situation, a cumulative frequency array would still give us O(1) query times, but it would take O(n) time to update after each change!!! (Basically, if we change one index in a cumulative frequency array, all other indexes above it would have to have this value added to it as well.) Here is a quick illustration: Current cumulative frequency array: Index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Value 2 4 4 4 6 8 11 13 17 Now, consider adding the value 2 to the data, recalling that index i stores the number of values less than or equal to i. The adjusted array is: Index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Value 2 4 5 5 7 9 12 14 18 We had to edit each index 2 or greater, which would take O(n) for a cumulative frequency array of size n. Thus, we want a new arrangement where both the query AND the update are relatively fast. The creative insight here is that perhaps if we store data in a different way, perhaps we can reduce the update time by quite a bit while incurring only a modest increase in query time.

  • B-Bit Sketch Trie: Scalable Similarity Search on Integer Sketches
    b-Bit Sketch Trie: Scalable Similarity Search on Integer Sketches Shunsuke Kanda Yasuo Tabei RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project Tokyo, Japan Tokyo, Japan [email protected] [email protected] Abstract—Recently, randomly mapping vectorial data to algorithms intending to build sketches of non-negative inte- strings of discrete symbols (i.e., sketches) for fast and space- gers (i.e., b-bit sketches) have been proposed for efficiently efficient similarity searches has become popular. Such random approximating various similarity measures. Examples are b-bit mapping is called similarity-preserving hashing and approximates a similarity metric by using the Hamming distance. Although minwise hashing (minhash) [12]–[14] for Jaccard similarity, many efficient similarity searches have been proposed, most of 0-bit consistent weighted sampling (CWS) for min-max ker- them are designed for binary sketches. Similarity searches on nel [15], and 0-bit CWS for generalized min-max kernel [16]. integer sketches are in their infancy. In this paper, we present Thus, developing scalable similarity search methods for b-bit a novel space-efficient trie named b-bit sketch trie on integer sketches is a key issue in large-scale applications of similarity sketches for scalable similarity searches by leveraging the idea behind succinct data structures (i.e., space-efficient data structures search. while supporting various data operations in the compressed Similarity searches on binary sketches are classified

  • Compact Fenwick Trees for Dynamic Ranking and Selection
    Compact Fenwick trees for dynamic ranking and selection Stefano Marchini Sebastiano Vigna Dipartimento di Informatica, Universit`adegli Studi di Milano, Italy October 15, 2019 Abstract The Fenwick tree [3] is a classical implicit data structure that stores an array in such a way that modifying an element, accessing an element, computing a prefix sum and performing a predecessor search on prefix sums all take logarithmic time. We introduce a number of variants which improve the classical implementation of the tree: in particular, we can reduce its size when an upper bound on the array element is known, and we can perform much faster predecessor searches. Our aim is to use our variants to implement an efficient dynamic bit vector: our structure is able to perform updates, ranking and selection in logarithmic time, with a space overhead in the order of a few percents, outperforming existing data structures with the same purpose. Along the way, we highlight the pernicious interplay between the arithmetic behind the Fenwick tree and the structure of current CPU caches, suggesting simple solutions that improve performance significantly. 1 Introduction The problem of building static data structures which perform rank and select operations on vectors of n bits in constant time using additional o(n) bits has received a great deal of attention in the last two decades starting form Jacobson's seminal work on succinct data structures. [7] The rank operator takes a position in the bit vector and returns the number of preceding ones. The select operation returns the position of the k-th one in the vector, given k.

  • Space- and Time-Efficient String Dictionaries
    Tokushima University Ph.D. Thesis Space- and Time-Efficient String Dictionaries z間¹率hB間¹率noD文W列辞ø Author: Supervisor: Shunsuke Kanda Prof. Masao Fuketa A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Advanced Technology and Science Department of Information Science and Intelligent Systems March 2018 iii Abstract In modern computer science, the management of massive data is a fundamental problem because the amount of data is growing faster than we can easily handle them. Such data are often represented as strings such as documents, Web contents and genomics data; therefore, data structures and algorithms for space-efficient string processing have been developed by many researchers. In this thesis, we focus on a string dictionary that is an in-memory data structure for storing a set of strings. It has been traditionally used to manage vocabulary in natural language processing and information retrieval. The size of the dictionaries is not problematic because of Heaps’ Law. However, string dictionaries in recent applications, such as Web search engines, RDF stores, geographic information systems and bioinformatics, need to handle very large datasets. As the space usage of string dictionaries is a significant issue in those applications, it is necessary to develop space-efficient data structures. If limited to static applications, existing data structures have already achieved very high space efficiency by exploiting succinct data structures and text compression techniques. For example, state-of-the-art string dictionaries can be implemented in space up to 5% of the original dataset size. However, there remain trade-off problems among space efficiency, lookup-time performance and construction costs.

It presents an illusion of a bare-metal environment to the software, and a trivial interface of address, data and read/write- enable signals to the logic design. Using this kit frees the development team from dealing with the AXI bus interface as well as Linux kernel programming, and allows a straightforward memory-like control of the peripheral without the operating system or the bus protocol coming in the way. The kit consists of an IP core and a Linux driver. These are included in the Xillinux distribution for the Zedboard (versions 1.1 and up), and are also available for download separately for inclusion in projects.

  • Hashing and Amortization
    Lecture 10 Hashing and Amortization Supplemental reading in CLRS: Chapter 11; Chapter 17 intro; Section 17.1 10.1 Arrays and Hashing Arrays are very useful. The items in an array are statically addressed, so that inserting, deleting, and looking up an element each take O(1) time. Thus, arrays are a terrific way to encode functions ©1,..., nª T, ! where T is some range of values and n is known ahead of time. For example, taking T {0,1}, we Æ find that an array A of n bits is a great way to store a subset of {1,..., n}: we set A[i] 1 if and only Æ if i is in the set (see Figure 10.1). Or, interpreting the bits as binary digits, we can use an n-bit array to store an integer between 0 and 2n 1. In this way, we will often identify the set {0,1}n with the set ¡ {0,...,2n 1}. ¡ What if we wanted to encode subsets of an arbitrary domain U, rather than just {1,..., n}? Or to put things differently, what if we wanted a keyed (or associative) array, where the keys could be arbitrary strings? While the workings of such data structures (such as dictionaries in Python) are abstracted away in many programming languages, there is usually an array-based solution working behind the scenes. Implementing associative arrays amounts to finding a way to turn a key into an array index. Thus, we are looking for a suitable function U {1,..., n}, called a hash function.

Keywords: search tree, memory-eciency, database management system, indexing, range ltering, succinct data structure, key compression To my son. iv Abstract e growing cost gap between DRAM and storage together with increas- ing database sizes means that database management systems (DBMSs) now operate with a lower memory to storage size ratio than before. On the other hand, modern DBMSs rely on in-memory search trees (e.g., indexes and l- ters) to achieve high throughput and low latency. ese search trees, how- ever, consume a large portion of the total memory available to the DBMS. is dissertation seeks to address the challenge of building compact yet fast in-memory search trees to allow more ecient use of memory in data pro- cessing systems. We rst present techniques to obtain maximum compres- sion on fast read-optimized search trees.
