Rust Algorithms

A collection of useful algorithms written in Rust. Currently contains:

Read the full README
  • geo_filters: probabilistic data structures that solve the Distinct Count Problem using geometric filters.
  • bpe: fast, correct, and novel algorithms for the Byte Pair Encoding Algorithm which are particularly useful for chunking of documents.
  • bpe-openai: Fast tokenizers for OpenAI token sets based on the bpe crate.
  • commutative_hasher: hash function that makes it possible to hash large blobs in parallel chunks.
  • consistent-choose-k: constant time consistent hashing algorithms with support for replication and bounded load.
  • hash-sorted-map: a hash map whose groups are ordered by hash prefix, enabling efficient sorted-order iteration and linear-time merging.
  • sparse-ngrams: fast sparse n-gram extraction from byte slices. Selects variable-length n-grams (2–8 bytes) deterministically using bigram frequency priorities, suitable for substring search indexes.
  • string-offsets: converts string positions between bytes, chars, UTF-16 code units, and line numbers. Useful when sending string indices across language boundaries.
  • casefold: a fast Unicode simple case-folding library backed by a very compact (~1.7 KB) paged-bitmap + run-length table. Folds whole strings at multiple GiB/s via a decode-free simple_fold that rewrites UTF-8 with little-endian byte arithmetic, beating a HashMap fold table by several × at ~10× less memory.

Background

Rust Algorithms is under active development and maintained by GitHub staff AND THE COMMUNITY. See CODEOWNERS for more details.

We will do our best to respond to support, feature requests, and community questions in a timely manner. For more details see support and contribution guidelines.

Order: strongest tier first, then most downloads, then name, with unmeasured values last. A library counts downloads over 30 days. An app counts binary downloads per release. An app with none counts its crate downloads over 30 days. ML Rust runs this catalogue, so its closest project always gets a row.

Why ListedNo archive, New or Featured rule places it, so it is Listed.

What it lacks for Featured

  • It has 5 active dependents and 5 new dependents in 365 days. Featured needs 11 active dependents or 9 new dependents in 365 days. The repository route reads 137 stars, 24 forks and 16 contributors. It needs 4,539 stars, 434 forks and 79 contributors together.

What else the check found

  • The last activity is on 5 Nov 2026, 4 days ago. The rules expect an update within 600 days. Dormancy rule
