public class EquiDepthHistogram extends PersistentObject
Read-only equi-depth histogram for selectivity estimation. Assume you have collected statistics over a data set, among them a one-dimensional equi-depth histogram (quantiles). Then an applications or DBMS might want to estimate the selectivity of some range query [from,to], i.e. the percentage of data set elements contained in the query range. This class does not collect equi-depth histograms but only space efficiently stores already produced histograms and provides operations for selectivity estimation. Uses linear interpolation.This class stores a list l of float values for which holds:
- Let v be a list of values (sorted ascending) an equi-depth histogram has been computed over.
- Let s=l.length.
- Let p=(0, 1/s-1), 2/s-1,..., s-1/s-1=1.0) be a list of the s percentages.
- Then for each i=0..s-1: l[i] = e : v.contains(e) && v[0],..., v[p[i]*v.length] <= e.
- (In particular: l[0]=min(v)=v[0] and l[s-1]=max(v)=v[s-1].)

Method Detail
-
binOfElement
public int binOfElement(float element)
Returns the bin index of the given element. In other words, returns a handle to the range the element falls into.- Parameters:
element- the element to search for.- Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException- if the element is not contained in any bin.
-
bins
public int bins()
Returns the number of bins. In other words, returns the number of subdomains partitioning the entire value domain.
-
endOfBin
public float endOfBin(int binIndex)
Returns the end of the range associated with the given bin.- Throws:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException- if binIndex < 0 || binIndex >= bins().
-
percentFromTo
public double percentFromTo(float from, float to)Returns the percentage of elements in the range (from,to]. Does linear interpolation.- Parameters:
from- the start point (exclusive).to- the end point (inclusive).
-
phi
public double phi(float element)
Returns how many percent of the elements contained in the receiver are <= element. Does linear interpolation.- Parameters:
the- element to search for.
-
size
public int size()
Deprecated. Deprecated. Returns the number of bin boundaries.
-
startOfBin
public float startOfBin(int binIndex)
Returns the start of the range associated with the given bin.- Throws:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException- if binIndex < 0 || binIndex >= bins().
-
test
public static void test(float element)
