| Helper Classes |
| ============== |
| |
| .. currentmodule:: dataksetches |
| |
| These classes are required for certain sketches or specific |
| functionality within sketches. |
| Some of them are abstract base classes, but in those cases there is at |
| least one reference example of a concrete class. |
| |
| * :class:`serde` is used when serializing and deserializing sketches. |
| * :class:`jaccard` is used to compute the Jaccard similarity between pairs of theta or tuple sketches. |
| * :class:`tuple_policy` is required to use a :class:`tuple_sketch` by specifying how summaries are combined. |
| * :func:`ks_test` performs a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test on absolute-error quantiles family sketches. |
| * :class:`kernel_function` is required when using a :class:`kernel_sketch` for Kernel Density Estimation. |
