Note that the depth of the mix-split graph/tree (also denoting the accuracy level n of a particular CF), is determined by a user-defined parameter “ τ” (error-tolerance limit), where 0<τ<1. In order to bound the concentration error in the target-CF within the error-tolerance limit (τ) = 12n+1 = 0.52n [131, 163], each CF is represented as an n-bit binary fractional number x2n, where x∈ℕ, 0 ≤x≤2n, and n∈ℕ [15]. However, for the sake of pictorial clarity, we will represent, each CF-value, for a given n, by its numerator only, i.e., we will write CF = x in all figures, instead of x2n. The value of each CF is represented as the label of the corresponding node in the mix-split graph/tree.
