Bloomf - Efficient Bloom filters for OCaml Build Status

Bloom filters are memory and time efficient data structures allowing probabilistic membership queries in a set.

A query negative result ensures that the element is not present in the set, while a positive result might be a false positive, i.e. the element might not be present and the BF membership query can return true anyway.

Internal parameters of the BF allow to control its false positive rate depending on the expected number of elements in it.

Online documentation is available here.

Install

bloomf is available on opam with opam install bloomf.

Alternatively, you can build from sources with make or dune build.

Tests

Some of the tests, measuring false positive rate or size estimation, might fail once in a while since they are randomized. They are thus removed from dune runtest alias.

To run the whole test suite, run dune build @runtest-rand instead.

Benchmarks

Micro benchmarks are provided for create, add, mem and size_estimate operations. Expected error rate is 0.01.

They preform OLS regression analysis using the development version of bechamel. To reproduce them, pin bechamel then run make bench.
