[Untitled][edit]

Hi, I created a page titled "Weighted Cardinality Estimation", I want to rename it so I created another page with the same content titled "Count-Distinct Problem".

Please delete the "Weighted Cardinality Estimation" and keep the "Count-Distinct Problem" page - this should be the page's name.

Thank you, Aviv

I've moved the page for you. Tutelary (talk) 22:39, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

CVM algorithm; initial value of "p"?[edit]

There's a seemingly clear definition of the CVM algorithm using pseudo-code. Problem: there's no apparent initial value for the variable "p" (a probability threshold). What should it be? -- Dan Griscom (talk) 22:52, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Must be 1 according to Knuth's paper. Retimuko (talk) 20:01, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
