| a) Probabilistic Data Structures for Web Analytics and Data Mining : On Highly Scalable Blog (http://highlyscalable.wordpress.com/2012/05/01/probabilistic-structures-web-analytics-data-mining/) : A great overview of the space of probabilistic data structures and how they are used in approximation algorithm implementation. | |
| b) Models and Issues in Data Stream Systems : (http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.106.9846) | |
| c) Approximate Frequency Counts over Data Streams by Gurmeet Singh Manku & Rajeev Motwani (http://www.vldb.org/conf/2002/S10P03.pdf) : One of the early papers on the subject. | |
| d) Methods for Finding Frequent Items in Data Streams by Graham Cormode & Marios Hadjieleftheriou (http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.187.9800&rep=rep1&type=pdf) | |
| e) The space complexity of approximating the frequency moments by Noga Alon, Yossi Matias, Mario Szegedy : one of the most influential papers introducing succinctness in computing fre |
