+<p>Produces an n-bucket histogram for a column where each bucket counts one of the most frequent values in the column. The output is an array of doubles {value, count} in descending order of frequency; counts are approximated via CountMin sketches. Ties are handled arbitrarily.</p>
+<p><a class="anchor" id="syntax"></a> The MFV frequent-value UDA comes in two different versions:</p><ul>
+<li>a faithful implementation that preserves the approximation guarantees of Cormode/Muthukrishnan, <pre class="syntax">
+mfvsketch_top_histogram( col_name,
+                         n )
+</pre></li>
+<li>and a "quick and dirty" version that can do parallel aggregation in Greenplum at the expense of missing some of the most frequent values. <pre class="syntax">
+mfvsketch_quick_histogram( col_name,
+                           n )
+</pre></li>
+</ul>
+<p>In PostgreSQL the two UDAs are identical. In Greenplum, the quick version should produce good results unless the number of values requested is small, or the distribution is flat.</p>
+<dl class="section note"><dt>Note</dt><dd>This is a <a href="https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/xaggr.html">User Defined Aggregate</a> which returns the results when used in a query.

+<p><a class="anchor" id="background"></a></p><dl class="section user"><dt>Technical Background</dt><dd>Multinomial logistic regression models the outcomes of categorical dependent random variables (denoted \( Y \in \{ 0,1,2 \ldots k \} \)). The model assumes that the conditional mean of the dependent categorical variables is the logistic function of an affine combination of independent variables (usually denoted \( \boldsymbol x \)). That is, <p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ E[Y \mid \boldsymbol x] = \sigma(\boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x) \]
+</p>
+ for some unknown vector of coefficients \( \boldsymbol c \) and where \( \sigma(x) = \frac{1}{1 + \exp(-x)} \) is the logistic function. Multinomial logistic regression finds the vector of coefficients \( \boldsymbol c \) that maximizes the likelihood of the observations.</dd></dl>
+<p>Let</p><ul>
+<li>\( \boldsymbol y \in \{ 0,1 \}^{n \times k} \) denote the vector of observed dependent variables, with \( n \) rows and \( k \) columns, containing the observed values of the dependent variable,</li>
+<li>\( X \in \mathbf R^{n \times k} \) denote the design matrix with \( k \) columns and \( n \) rows, containing all observed vectors of independent variables \( \boldsymbol x_i \) as rows.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>By definition, </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ P[Y = y_i | \boldsymbol x_i] = \sigma((-1)^{y_i} \cdot \boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x_i) \,. \]
+</p>
+<p> Maximizing the likelihood \( \prod_{i=1}^n \Pr(Y = y_i \mid \boldsymbol x_i) \) is equivalent to maximizing the log-likelihood \( \sum_{i=1}^n \log \Pr(Y = y_i \mid \boldsymbol x_i) \), which simplifies to </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ l(\boldsymbol c) = -\sum_{i=1}^n \log(1 + \exp((-1)^{y_i} \cdot \boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x_i)) \,. \]
+</p>
+<p> The Hessian of this objective is \( H = -X^T A X \) where \( A = \text{diag}(a_1, \dots, a_n) \) is the diagonal matrix with \( a_i = \sigma(\boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x) \cdot \sigma(-\boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x) \,. \) Since \( H \) is non-positive definite, \( l(\boldsymbol c) \) is convex. There are many techniques for solving convex optimization problems. Currently, logistic regression in MADlib can use:</p><ul>
+<li>Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares</li>
+</ul>
+<p>We estimate the standard error for coefficient \( i \) as </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ \mathit{se}(c_i) = \left( (X^T A X)^{-1} \right)_{ii} \,. \]
+</p>
+<p> The Wald z-statistic is </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ z_i = \frac{c_i}{\mathit{se}(c_i)} \,. \]
+</p>
+<p>The Wald \( p \)-value for coefficient \( i \) gives the probability (under the assumptions inherent in the Wald test) of seeing a value at least as extreme as the one observed, provided that the null hypothesis ( \( c_i = 0 \)) is true. Letting \( F \) denote the cumulative density function of a standard normal distribution, the Wald \( p \)-value for coefficient \( i \) is therefore </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ p_i = \Pr(|Z| \geq |z_i|) = 2 \cdot (1 - F( |z_i| )) \]
+</p>
+<p> where \( Z \) is a standard normally distributed random variable.</p>
+<p>The odds ratio for coefficient \( i \) is estimated as \( \exp(c_i) \).</p>
+<p>The condition number is computed as \( \kappa(X^T A X) \) during the iteration immediately <em>preceding</em> convergence (i.e., \( A \) is computed using the coefficients of the previous iteration). A large condition number (say, more than 1000) indicates the presence of significant multicollinearity.</p>
+<p>The multinomial logistic regression uses a default reference category of zero, and the regression coefficients in the output are in the order described below. For a problem with \( K \) dependent variables \( (1, ..., K) \) and \( J \) categories \( (0, ..., J-1) \), let \( {m_{k,j}} \) denote the coefficient for dependent variable \( k \) and category \( j \). The output is \( {m_{k_1, j_0}, m_{k_1, j_1} \ldots m_{k_1, j_{J-1}}, m_{k_2, j_0}, m_{k_2, j_1}, \ldots m_{k_2, j_{J-1}} \ldots m_{k_K, j_{J-1}}} \). The order is NOT CONSISTENT with the multinomial regression marginal effect calculation with function <em>marginal_mlogregr</em>. This is deliberate because the interfaces of all multinomial regressions (robust, clustered, ...) will be moved to match that used in marginal.</p>

The model assumes that the conditional mean of the dependent categorical variables is the logistic function of an affine combination of independent variables (usually denoted \( \boldsymbol x \)). That is, <p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ E[Y \mid \boldsymbol x] = \sigma(\boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x) \]
+</p>
+ for some unknown vector of coefficients \( \boldsymbol c \) and where \( \sigma(x) = \frac{1}{1 + \exp(-x)} \) is the logistic function. Multinomial logistic regression finds the vector of coefficients \( \boldsymbol c \) that maximizes the likelihood of the observations.</dd></dl>
+<p>Let</p><ul>
+<li>\( \boldsymbol y \in \{ 0,1 \}^{n \times k} \) denote the vector of observed dependent variables, with \( n \) rows and \( k \) columns, containing the observed values of the dependent variable,</li>
+<li>\( X \in \mathbf R^{n \times k} \) denote the design matrix with \( k \) columns and \( n \) rows, containing all observed vectors of independent variables \( \boldsymbol x_i \) as rows.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>By definition, </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ P[Y = y_i | \boldsymbol x_i] = \sigma((-1)^{y_i} \cdot \boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x_i) \,. \]
+</p>
+<p> Maximizing the likelihood \( \prod_{i=1}^n \Pr(Y = y_i \mid \boldsymbol x_i) \) is equivalent to maximizing the log-likelihood \( \sum_{i=1}^n \log \Pr(Y = y_i \mid \boldsymbol x_i) \), which simplifies to </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ l(\boldsymbol c) = -\sum_{i=1}^n \log(1 + \exp((-1)^{y_i} \cdot \boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x_i)) \,. \]
+</p>
+<p> The Hessian of this objective is \( H = -X^T A X \) where \( A = \text{diag}(a_1, \dots, a_n) \) is the diagonal matrix with \( a_i = \sigma(\boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x) \cdot \sigma(-\boldsymbol c^T \boldsymbol x) \,. \) Since \( H \) is non-positive definite, \( l(\boldsymbol c) \) is convex. There are many techniques for solving convex optimization problems. Currently, logistic regression in MADlib can use:</p><ul>
+<li>Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares</li>
+</ul>
+<p>We estimate the standard error for coefficient \( i \) as </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ \mathit{se}(c_i) = \left( (X^T A X)^{-1} \right)_{ii} \,. \]
+</p>
+<p> The Wald z-statistic is </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ z_i = \frac{c_i}{\mathit{se}(c_i)} \,. \]
+</p>
+<p>The Wald \( p \)-value for coefficient \( i \) gives the probability (under the assumptions inherent in the Wald test) of seeing a value at least as extreme as the one observed, provided that the null hypothesis ( \( c_i = 0 \)) is true. Letting \( F \) denote the cumulative density function of a standard normal distribution, the Wald \( p \)-value for coefficient \( i \) is therefore </p><p class="formulaDsp">
+\[ p_i = \Pr(|Z| \geq |z_i|) = 2 \cdot (1 - F( |z_i| )) \]
+</p>
+<p> where \( Z \) is a standard normally distributed random variable.</p>
+<p>The odds ratio for coefficient \( i \) is estimated as \( \exp(c_i) \).</p>
+<p>The condition number is computed as \( \kappa(X^T A X) \) during the iteration immediately <em>preceding</em> convergence (i.e., \( A \) is computed using the coefficients of the previous iteration). A large condition number (say, more than 1000) indicates the presence of significant multicollinearity.</p>
+<p>The multinomial logistic regression uses a default reference category of zero, and the regression coefficients in the output are in the order described below. For a problem with \( K \) dependent variables \( (1, ..., K) \) and \( J \) categories \( (0, ..., J-1) \), let \( {m_{k,j}} \) denote the coefficient for dependent variable \( k \) and category \( j \). The output is \( {m_{k_1, j_0}, m_{k_1, j_1} \ldots m_{k_1, j_{J-1}}, m_{k_2, j_0}, m_{k_2, j_1}, \ldots m_{k_2, j_{J-1}} \ldots m_{k_K, j_{J-1}}} \). The order is NOT CONSISTENT with the multinomial regression marginal effect calculation with function <em>marginal_mlogregr</em>. This is deliberate because the interfaces of all multinomial regressions (robust, clustered, ...) will be moved to match that used in marginal.</p>
