| | We are all familiar with Pascal's Triangle, also known as the Arithmetic Triangle (AT). Each entry in the AT is the sum of the two closest entries in the row above it. The $latex {k}&fg=000000$-th entry in row $latex {n}&fg=000000$ is the binomial coefficient $latex {\binom{n}{k}}&fg=000000$ (read $latex {n}&fg=000000$-choose-$latex {k}&fg=000000$), the number of ways of...

| | I just came across a really interesting and simple algorithm for estimating the number of distinct elements in a stream of data. The paper (Chakraborty et al. 2023) is available on arXiv; see this Quanta article (Reference 2) for a layman's explanation. Problem statement Let's state the problem formally. Let's say we are given a...

| | For probability space $latex (\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mathbb{P})$ with $latex A \in \mathcal{F}$ the indicator random variable $latex {\bf 1}_A : \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R} = \left\{ \begin{array}{cc} 1, & \omega \in A \\ 0, & \omega \notin A \end{array} \right.$ Than expected value of the indicator variable is the probability of the event $latex \omega \in...
