  2. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    Pandas supports hierarchical indices with multiple values per data point. An index with this structure, called a "MultiIndex", allows a single DataFrame to represent multiple dimensions, similar to a pivot table in Microsoft Excel. [4]: 147–148 Each level of a MultiIndex can be given a unique name.

  3. Table (database) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_(database)

    In a database, a table is a collection of related data organized in table format; consisting of columns and rows.. In relational databases, and flat file databases, a table is a set of data elements (values) using a model of vertical columns (identifiable by name) and horizontal rows, the cell being the unit where a row and column intersect. [1]

  4. Cardinality (SQL statements) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinality_(SQL_statements)

    Each time a new user is created in the USERS table, a new number would be created in the USER_ID column to identify them uniquely. Since the values held in the USER_ID column are unique, this column's cardinality type would be referred to as high-cardinality. Normal-cardinality refers to columns with values that are somewhat uncommon. Normal ...

  5. Count-distinct problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count-distinct_problem

    In computer science, the count-distinct problem [1] (also known in applied mathematics as the cardinality estimation problem) is the problem of finding the number of distinct elements in a data stream with repeated elements. This is a well-known problem with numerous applications.

  6. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    To process this statement without an index the database software must look at the last_name column on every row in the table (this is known as a full table scan). With an index the database simply follows the index data structure (typically a B-tree ) until the Smith entry has been found; this is much less computationally expensive than a full ...

  7. Flajolet–Martin algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flajolet–Martin_algorithm

    Within each group use the mean for aggregating together the results, and finally take the median of the group estimates as the final estimate. [ 5 ] The 2007 HyperLogLog algorithm splits the multiset into subsets and estimates their cardinalities, then it uses the harmonic mean to combine them into an estimate for the original cardinality.

  8. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_orientation

    For example, a table of 128 rows with a Boolean column requires 128 bytes a row-oriented format (one byte per Boolean) but 128 bits (16 bytes) in a column-oriented format (via a bitmap). Another example is the use of run-length encoding to encode a column.

  9. Entity–attribute–value model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–attribute–value...

    An entity–attribute–value model (EAV) is a data model optimized for the space-efficient storage of sparse—or ad-hoc—property or data values, intended for situations where runtime usage patterns are arbitrary, subject to user variation, or otherwise unforeseeable using a fixed design.
