Heads up, I searched arxiv and it doesn't appear that this paper is there.
> Add HyperLogLogPlus implementation to Stellar
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: METRON-627
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-627
> Project: Metron
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Michael Miklavcic
> Assignee: Michael Miklavcic
>
> Calculating set cardinality can be a useful tool for a security analyst. For
> instance, a large volume of non-unique src ip addresses hitting your network
> may be an indication that you are currently under attack. There have been
> many advancements in distinct value (DV) estimation over the years. We have
> seen implementations evolve from K-Minimum-Values (KMV), to LogLog, to
> HyperLogLog, and now to Google's much-improved HyperLogLogPlu algorithm. The
> key improvements in this latest manifestation of the algorithm are:
> moves to a 64-bit hash
> handles sparse sets
> is more accurate with small cardinality
> This Jira tracks the effort to add a HyperLogLogPlus implementation to Metron.
