about
sketch_count_sketch.nx -- CountSketch (Charikar-Chen-Farach-Colton 2002).
Frequency-counting variant that gives UNBIASED estimates via ±1
sign hashing. Each (key, count) update adds s_j(key) * count to
row j column h_j(key), where s_j ∈ {-1, +1} is a sign hash.
Query: median of (s_j(key) * counter[j][h_j(key)]) across rows.
COMPLEMENTS CMS (runtime/sketch_cms.nx):
- CMS: always OVERESTIMATES (false positives via positive collisions).
Use when "upper bound" matters.
- CountSketch: UNBIASED. Use when expectation matters (statistical
summaries, F_2 estimation, sparse-approximation literature).
CAPABILITY STOMP: shipping both means callers pick by error semantics.
DataSketches ships CMS as "FrequentLongs"; CountSketch is queued in
their docs but not implemented.
ERROR BOUND:
|estimate(x) - f(x)| <= ε · ||f||_2 / sqrt(d)
where ||f||_2 = sqrt(Σ f_i²) is the L2 norm of the frequency vector.
For w = O(1/ε²) and d = O(log(1/δ)) rows: confidence 1-δ.
Default params: d=5 rows, w=2048 columns -> conf >99%, ε ~ 0.022.
