Sublinear: a panacea? Sub-linear space algorithm for solving Travelling Salesperson Problem? Sorry, perhaps a different lecture Hard to solve sublinearly even very simple problems: Ex: what is the count of distinct IPs seen Will settle for: Approximate algorithms: 1+ approximation true answer ≤ output ≤ (1+ ) * (true answer) Randomized: above holds with probability 95% Quick and dirty way to get a sense of the data IPFrequency 131.107.65.143 18.9.22.692 80.97.56.202 128.112.128.819 127.0.0.18 257.2.5.70 8.3.20.121

Distinct Elements: idea 1 Algorithm DISTINCT: Initialize: minHash=1 hash function h into [0,1] Process (int i): if (h(i) < minHash) minHash = h(index); Output: 1/minHash-1 Algorithm DISTINCT: Initialize: minHash=1 hash function h into [0,1] Process (int i): if (h(i) < minHash) minHash = h(index); Output: 1/minHash-1 2 2 7 7 5 5 [Flajolet-Martin’85, Alon-Matias-Szegedy’96]

Problem 2: max count Problem: compute the maximum frequency of an element in the stream Bad news: Hard to distinguish whether an element repeated (max = 1 vs 2) Good news: Can find “heavy hitters” elements with frequency > total frequency / s using space proportional to s IPFrequency 21 53 71 2 2 5 5 7 7 5 5 5 5 heavy hitters

Precision Sampling Lemma Goal: estimate ∑a i from {a ̃ i } satisfying |a i -a ̃ i |<u i. Precision Sampling Lemma: can get, with 90% success: O(1) additive error and 1.5 multiplicative error: S – O(1) < S ̃ < 1.5*S + O(1) with average cost equal to O(log n) Example: distinguish Σ a i =3 vs Σ a i =0 Consider two extreme cases: if three a i =1: enough to have crude approx for all (u i =0.1) if all a i =3/n: only few with good approx u i =1/n, and the rest with u i =1 ε1+ε S – ε < S̃ < (1+ ε)S + ε O(ε -3 log n) [A-Krauthgamer-Onak’11]

Precision Sampling Algorithm Precision Sampling Lemma: can get, with 90% success: O(1) additive error and 1.5 multiplicative error: S – O(1) < S ̃ < 1.5*S + O(1) with average cost equal to O(log n) Algorithm: Choose each u i [0,1] i.i.d. Estimator: S ̃ = count number of i‘s s.t. a ̃ i / u i > 6 (up to a normalization constant) Proof of correctness: we use only a ̃ i which are 1.5-approximation to a i E[ S ̃ ] ≈ ∑ Pr[a i / u i > 6] = ∑ a i /6. E[1/u i ] = O(log n) w.h.p. function of [ã i /u i - 4/ε] + and u i ’s concrete distrib. = minimum of O(ε -3 ) u.r.v. O(ε -3 log n) ε1+ε S – ε < S̃ < (1+ ε)S + ε
