A New Algorithm for Compressed Counting with Applications in Shannon Entropy Estimation in Dynamic Data

Published on Aug 02, 20113555 Views

In this paper, we propose a new accurate algorithm for Compressed Counting, whose sample complexity is only O (1/v2) for v-additive Shannon entropy estimation. The constant factor for this bound is
