Designing a good non-cryptographic hash function
- vog 10y agoVery good explaination of how to evaluate hash functions! Here are my 2 cents: It would have been nice to get the exact formula by which the diffusion map is computed. Or, to point to another article or Wikipedia entry where this is explained. There are two small typos in section "Combining diffusions", using s' (the new state) where s (the old state) is meant. The article says: s' = d(f(s',x)) It should be: s' = d(f(s,x)) Then, the article says: f(s',x) is what we call our combinator function. This should be: f(s,x) is what we call our combinator function.
