Abstract
A function's purity may be estimated by comparing a new input vector to previously analyzed input vectors. When a new input vector is within a confidence boundary, the new input vector may be treated as a known vector, even when that vector has not been evaluated. The input vector may reflect the input parameters passed to a function, and the function may be analyzed to determine whether to memoize with the input vector. The function may be a function that behaves as a pure function in some circumstances and with some input vectors, but not with others. By memoizing the function when possible, the function may be executed much faster, thereby improving performance.
