“…To initialise S from V, first three independent variables are sampled from the CWS distributions: r i , j ∼ Gamma(2, 1), c i , j ∼ Gamma(2, 1) and β i , j ∼ Uniform(0, 1) for i ∈ E and j = 1, ..., Z. We then use Algorithm 1 of Yang et al for histosketch creation (Yang et al , 2017) . The sketch, S, and the corresponding hash values, A, are both kept as the histosketch (A allows for incremental sketch updating).…”
