Dynamic Maintenance of Wavelet-Based Histograms

Summary: Dynamic maintenance of wavelet-based histograms via probabilistic counting and sampling enables fast online updates. The method preserves accuracy under distribution drift and scales to multidimensional histograms, outperforming standard update methods. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
