In this paper, we address the problem of sampling from a set and reconstructing a set stored as a Bloom filter. To the best of our knowledge our work is the first to address this question. We introduce a novel hierarchical data structure called BloomSampleTree that helps us design efficient algorithms to extract an almost uniform sample from the set stored in a Bloom filter and also allows us to reconstruct the set efficiently. In the case where the hash functions used in the Bloom filter implementation are partially invertible, in the sense that it is easy to calculate the set of elements that map to a particular hash value, we propose a second, more space-efficient method called HashInvert for the reconstruction. We study the properties of these two methods both analytically as well as experimentally. We provide bounds on run times for both methods and sample quality for the BloomSampleTree based algorithm, and show through an extensive experimental evaluation that our methods are efficient and effective.

Bloom filters (BF) are widely used for approximate membership queries over a set of elements. BF variants allow removals, sets of unbounded size or querying a sliding window over an unbounded stream. However, for this last case the best current appro aches are dictionary based (e.g., based on Cuckoo Filters or TinyTable), and it may seem that BF-based approaches will never be competitive to dictionary-based ones. In this paper we present Age-Partitioned Bloom Filters, a BF-based approach for duplicate detection in sliding windows that not only is competitive in time-complexity, but has better space usage than current dictionary-based approaches (e.g., SWAMP), at the cost of some moderate slack. APBFs retain the BF simplicity, unlike dictionary-based approaches, important for hardware-based implementations, and can integrate known improvements such as double hashing or blocking. We present an Age-Partitioned Blocked Bloom Filter variant which can operate with 2-3 cache-line accesses per insertion and around 2-4 per query, even for high accuracy filters.
The Bloom filter provides fast approximate set membership while using little memory. Engineers often use these filters to avoid slow operations such as disk or network accesses. As an alternative, a cuckoo filter may need less space than a Bloom filt er and it is faster. Chazelle et al. proposed a generalization of the Bloom filter called the Bloomier filter. Dietzfelbinger and Pagh described a variation on the Bloomier filter that can be used effectively for approximate membership queries. It has never been tested empirically, to our knowledge. We review an efficient implementation of their approach, which we call the xor filter. We find that xor filters can be faster than Bloom and cuckoo filters while using less memory. We further show that a more compact version of xor filters (xor+) can use even less space than highly compact alternatives (e.g., Golomb-compressed sequences) while providing speeds competitive with Bloom filters.
Dynamic Bloom filters (DBF) were proposed by Guo et. al. in 2010 to tackle the situation where the size of the set to be stored compactly is not known in advance or can change during the course of the application. We propose a novel competitor to DBF with the following important property that DBF is not able to achieve: our structure is able to maintain a bound on the false positive rate for the set membership query across all possible sizes of sets that are stored in it. The new data structure we propose is a dynamic structure that we call Dynamic Partition Bloom filter (DPBF). DPBF is based on our novel concept of a Bloom partition tree which is a tree structure with standard Bloom filters at the leaves. DPBF is superior to standard Bloom filters because it can efficiently handle a large number of unions and intersections of sets of different sizes while controlling the false positive rate. This makes DPBF the first structure to do so to the best of our knowledge. We provide theoretical bounds comparing the false positive probability of DPBF to DBF.
Filters (such as Bloom Filters) are data structures that speed up network routing and measurement operations by storing a compressed representation of a set. Filters are space efficient, but can make bounded one-sided errors: with tunable probability epsilon, they may report that a query element is stored in the filter when it is not. This is called a false positive. Recent research has focused on designing methods for dynamically adapting filters to false positives, reducing the number of false positives when some elements are queried repeatedly. Ideally, an adaptive filter would incur a false positive with bounded probability epsilon for each new query element, and would incur o(epsilon) total false positives over all repeated queries to that element. We call such a filter support optimal. In this paper we design a new Adaptive Cuckoo Filter and show that it is support optimal (up to additive logarithmic terms) over any n queries when storing a set of size n. Our filter is simple: fixing previous false positives requires a simple cuckoo operation, and the filter does not need to store any additional metadata. This data structure is the first practical data structure that is support optimal, and the first filter that does not require additional space to fix false positives. We complement these bounds with experiments showing that our data structure is effective at fixing false positives on network traces, outperforming previous Adaptive Cuckoo Filters. Finally, we investigate adversarial adaptivity, a stronger notion of adaptivity in which an adaptive adversary repeatedly queries the filter, using the result of previous queries to drive the false positive rate as high as possible. We prove a lower bound showing that a broad family of filters, including all known Adaptive Cuckoo Filters, can be forced by such an adversary to incur a large number of false positives.
The membership problem asks to maintain a set $Ssubseteq[u]$, supporting insertions and membership queries, i.e., testing if a given element is in the set. A data structure that computes exact answers is called a dictionary. When a (small) false posi tive rate $epsilon$ is allowed, the data structure is called a filter. The space usages of the standard dictionaries or filters usually depend on the upper bound on the size of $S$, while the actual set can be much smaller. Pagh, Segev and Wieder (FOCS13) were the first to study filters with varying space usage based on the current $|S|$. They showed in order to match the space with the current set size $n=|S|$, any filter data structure must use $(1-o(1))n(log(1/epsilon)+(1-O(epsilon))loglog n)$ bits, in contrast to the well-known lower bound of $Nlog(1/epsilon)$ bits, where $N$ is an upper bound on $|S|$. They also presented a data structure with almost optimal space of $(1+o(1))n(log(1/epsilon)+O(loglog n))$ bits provided that $n>u^{0.001}$, with expected amortized constant insertion time and worst-case constant lookup time. In this work, we present a filter data structure with improvements in two aspects: - it has constant worst-case time for all insertions and lookups with high probability; - it uses space $(1+o(1))n(log (1/epsilon)+loglog n)$ bits when $n>u^{0.001}$, achieving optimal leading constant for all $epsilon=o(1)$. We also present a dictionary that uses $(1+o(1))nlog(u/n)$ bits of space, matching the optimal space in terms of the current size, and performs all operations in constant time with high probability.
