Schematic overview of the approach: short intervals (windows) of the several mass axes are considered as smallest building blocks of the data set and generated from a raw dataframe. Then for each window the (several) hash functions h map into the N hash buckets (colored boxes at the bottom right). These are indexed from \(i=0\) to \(i=N-1\) and the number of windows n within a bucket is counted. Finally, if more than one window is mapped in a given hash bucket, all windows inside the box are considered “true” signal
