Fast maximum-minimum filters implemented in C++
OTHER License
This code implements the algorithms described in the following paper:
Daniel Lemire, Streaming Maximum-Minimum Filter Using No More than Three Comparisons per Element. Nordic Journal of Computing, 13 (4), pages 328-339, 2006.
Contributors: Daniel Lemire, Kai Wolf
The main algorithm presented in this package is used in Apache Hive.
To reproduce the numbers from the paper, do the following:
make
./unit
./runningmaxmin --sine 1000000 10000 --windowrange 4 100 --times 1
./runningmaxmin --white 1000000 --windowrange 4 100 --times 1
The new algorithm introduced in the manuscript is most suitable for piecewise monotonic data or when low-latency is required. Otherwise, Gil-Kimmel and van Herk are good choices.
