      Dynamic count filters 

      Aguilar-Saborit, J.; Trancoso, Pedro; Muntes-Mulero, V.; Larriba-Pey, J. L. (2006)
      Bloom filters are not able to handle deletes and inserts on multisets over time. This is important in many situations when streamed data evolve rapidly and change patterns frequently. Counting Bloom Filters (CBF) have been ...
