The outputs of this process correspond to the counters that are incremented when building up a count-min sketch. The output space of this process is visualized as a unit (15[1])circle in a technique (15[1])for load balancing invented by the founders of Akamai and also used by BitTorrent, called its “consistent” form. Collections of random projections may be used to implement this process in a (*) locality-sensitive way, (10[1])which is useful for similarity search. Set membership is checked (10[1])probabilistically by applying this process k times to an input (-5[1])and then checking corresponding entries in a Bloom filter. A salt is added (10[1])to the input (10[1])before (10[1])this process (10[2])is performed (-5[1])in order to encrypt a password. For 10 points, name this (10[1])process of applying a one-way function to a value so that it can be placed in a namesake table. (10[1])■END■ (10[1])
