# pythonmaxmin
Fast minimum-maximal filter in Python

This code implements the algorithms described in the following paper:

Daniel Lemire, [Streaming Maximum-Minimum Filter Using No More than
Three Comparisons per Element](http://arxiv.org/abs/cs.DS/0610046). Nordic Journal of Computing, 13 (4), pages 328-339, 2006.

The main algorithm presented in this package is used in [Apache Hive](https://github.com/apache/hive).

Suitability
------------

The new algorithm introduced in the manuscript is most suitable for piecewise monotonic
data or when low-latency is required. Otherwise, Gil-Kimmel and van Herk
are good choices.
