Abstract
Decimation of data from a fixed length queue retaining a representative sample of the old data. Exponential decimation removes every nth sample. Dithered exponential decimation offsets the exponential decimation approach by a probabilistic amount. Recursive decimation selects a portion of the queue and removes elements.
Claims18
The method of removing elements from a fixed-length queue, the method comprising decimation of elements from the queue.
An article of manufacture for performing decimation of a fixed length queue, the article of manufacture comprising:
- at least one computer readable medium;
- processor instructions contained on the computer readable medium, the instructions configured to be readable by at least one processor and to cause the processor to remove elements from a fixed length queue by decimation.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
