Bloom Maps

چکیده
We consider the problem of succinctly encoding a static map to support approximate queries. We derive upper and lower bounds on the space requirements in terms of the error rate and the entropy of the distribution of values over keys: our bounds differ by a factor log e. For the upper bound we introduce a novel data structure, the Bloom map, generalising the Bloom filter to this problem. The lower bound follows from an information theoretic argument.

Nanocomputing Architectures with Bloom Filters as Defect Maps
Significant progress has been made in the development of the emerging nanoscale computing devices. While the ultimate manufacturing process for such devices is uncertain, it is abundantly clear that future technology nodes will see an increase in defect rates. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to construct new architectures and design methodologies that can tolerate large numbers of defe...
متن کاملEfficient Storage of Defect Maps for Nanoscale Memory
Nanoscale technology promises dramatic increases in device density, but reliability is decreased as a sideeffect. With bit-error rates projected to be as high as 10%, designing a usable nanoscale memory system poses a significant challenge. Storing defect information corresponding to every bit in the nanoscale device using a reliable storage bit is prohibitively costly. Using a Bloom filter to ...
متن کاملThe impact of advective transport by the South Indian Ocean Countercurrent on the Madagascar plankton bloom
[1] Based on ten years (1998–2007) of satellite ocean color data we analyze the spatiotemporal patterns in the seasonal Madagascar plankton bloom with respect to the advection of the recently discovered Southern Indian Ocean Countercurrent (SICC). In maps of Finite-time Lyapunov Exponents (FTLE) and Finite-Time Zonal Drift (FTZD) computed from altimetry derived velocities we observe a narrow zo...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Patterns in the Seasonal Distribution of Toxic Cyanobacteria in Western Lake Erie from 2002–2014
Lake Erie, the world's tenth largest freshwater lake by area, has had recurring blooms of toxic cyanobacteria for the past two decades. These blooms pose potential health risks for recreation, and impact the treatment of drinking water. Understanding the timing and distribution of the blooms may aid in planning by local communities and resources managers. Satellite data provides a means of exam...
متن کاملA 30-Year Assessment of Phytoplankton Blooms in Erhai Lake Using Landsat Imagery: 1987 to 2016
Long-term information of phytoplankton bloom is critical for assessing the processes driving blooms in lakes. A three-decade survey of the phytoplankton blooms was completed for Erhai Lake from 1987 to 2016 with Landsat imagery. A modified three-band model using Landsat broad bands is developed by comparing reflectance data from Landsat imagery to two field datasets. The model is applied to the...
