fusy

Definition

The surname of Éric Fusy, a co-author of the HyperLogLog paper and a researcher in combinatorics and algorithm analysis. In the cardinality-estimation literature the name almost always appears as part of the author string Flajolet, Fusy, Gandouet and Meunier, which is how that paper is conventionally cited. It is a person, not a method — a common misreading when scanning tokenized titles.
