The ccard-lib from liguo86

C library for estimating cardinality in data streams, in which case it is infeasible to store all events in memory.

This library implements a series of cardinality estimating algorithms such as Linear Counting, LogLog Counting, HyperLogLog Counting and Adaptive Counting. For more information about these algorithms please read the Reference section.

Building

Building ccard-lib needs scons. Please read scons user guide for more information about it.

Building PHP extension of ccard-lib needs SWIG to be installed. Running unit-tests needs googletest to be installed.

Building as Library

Assuming you have scons installed, just build ccard-lib like this:

scons install

Scons will build and install ccard-lib to your system.

You can also run unit-tests to make sure the library works as expected:

scons test

By default ccard-lib will be installed at /usr/local/lib, if you want to change the install directory please replace the "libdir" setting in SConsturct file with your target directory.

Building as PHP Extension

The following command will build and install card-lib PHP extension:

scons install-php

SWIG is used to generate PHP extension, please install it before run this command.

Uninstall

If you want to uninstall ccard-lib from your system, use the following commands:

scons -c install-php
scons -c install

Synopsis

Estimate Cardinality

#include "ccard_common.h"
#include "adaptive_counting.h"

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    int64_t i, esti;

    /* construct context for cardinality estimator */
    /* use xxx_cnt_init to construct context */
    adp_cnt_ctx_t *ctx = adp_cnt_init(NULL, 16, CCARD_HASH_MURMUR);

    printf("Adaptive Counting with Murmurhash:\n");

    /* add 500,000 elements to set */
    for (i = 1; i <= 500000L; i++) {
        /* use xxx_cnt_offer to add new element to set */
        adp_cnt_offer(ctx, &i, sizeof(int64_t));

        /* print estimate result every 50,000 elements has been added */
        if (i % 50000 == 0) {
            /* use xxx_cnt_card to get estimate result */
            esti = adp_cnt_card(ctx);
            printf("actual: %9lu, estimated: %9lu, error: %+7.2f%%\n",
                   (long unsigned int)i, (long unsigned int)esti, (double)(esti - i) / i * 100);
        }
    }
    printf("\n");

    /* use xxx_cnt_fini to destory context */
    adp_cnt_fini(ctx);
}

Merge Bitmaps

#include "ccard_common.h"
#include "adaptive_counting.h"

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    int64_t i, esti;

    /* for merging, contexts must have same length of bitmap and hash algorithm */
    adp_cnt_ctx_t *ctx = adp_cnt_init(NULL, 16, CCARD_HASH_LOOKUP3);
    adp_cnt_ctx_t *tbm1 = adp_cnt_init(NULL, 16, CCARD_HASH_LOOKUP3);
    adp_cnt_ctx_t *tbm2 = adp_cnt_init(NULL, 16, CCARD_HASH_LOOKUP3);

    int32_t m = 1 << 16;
    /* bitmaps */
    uint8_t buf1[m + 3], buf2[m + 3];
    uint32_t len1 = m + 3, len2 = m + 3;

    for (i = 1; i <= 20000L; i++) {
        adp_cnt_offer(ctx, &i, sizeof(uint64_t));
    }
    for (i = 10000L; i <= 30000L; i++) {
        adp_cnt_offer(tbm1, &i, sizeof(uint64_t));
    }
    /* use xxx_cnt_get_bytes to get bitmap from context */
    adp_cnt_get_bytes(tbm1, buf1, &len1);
    for (i = 20000L; i <= 40000L; i++) {
        adp_cnt_offer(tbm2, &i, sizeof(uint64_t));
    }
    adp_cnt_get_bytes(tbm2, buf2, &len2);

    /* use xxx_cnt_merge_bytes to merge bitmaps to context */
    adp_cnt_merge_bytes(ctx, buf1, len1, buf2, len2, NULL);
    esti = adp_cnt_card(ctx);

    printf("actual:40000, estimated: %9lu, error: %+7.2f%%\n",
           (long unsigned int)esti, (double)(esti - 40000) / 40000 * 100);

    adp_cnt_fini(tbm2);
    adp_cnt_fini(tbm1);
    adp_cnt_fini(ctx);
}

For Developers

Source codes should always be formatted before committing by running script util/indent-src in top-dir. It utilized astyle to do the job, so you probably want to install it first. Make sure you install astyle v2.03 or later, as the indenting result differs from previous versions (see here for details)
