(** Space-Saving Algorithm
This is an online algorithm to find out frequent elements in a data
stream. Say we want to detect an element occurring more than N/2 times
in a stream of N elements. We maintain two values (x1 and x2) and two
counters (n1 and n2). If the next value is x1 or x2, we increment the
corresponding counter. Otherwise, we replace the value with the smallest
counter with the next value, *and we increment the corresponding counter*.
If the stream contains a value occurring more than N/2 times, it is
guaranteed to be either x1 or x2.
This generalizes to k values being monitored.
The algorithm is described here:
