[jira] [Commented] (BEAM-10855) Add reference for appoximate unique algorithms in java and python SDK

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-10855?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17478138#comment-17478138 ] 

Kenneth Knowles commented on BEAM-10855:
----------------------------------------

Agreed! Pinging [~pcoet] for awareness. We should absolutely be transparent about our approximation algorithms and help users to trace references to original research when we use it.
