Statistical Analysis of Sketch Estimators
Summary: Statistical analysis of linear sketch estimators for streaming and distributed aggregates; empirical comparison of Fast-AGMS, Count-Min, and others. Finds theory underestimates practical performance; Fast-AGMS often best or near-best across problem classes, guiding practitioners. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
