System and method for the identification of latent relationships amongst data elements in large databases

摘要

A database tool comprises a computer-implemented method for quick low-intensity processing to identify latent relationships among data elements in very large databases and to determine whether a keyword or character string is contained in a document which is part of a large collection of documents. Text in data fields of source documents are enciphered into surrogate vectors comprising wide binary numbers. Each keyword of text will set a corresponding group of bits in the associated surrogate vector. Any non-true bit required in the enciphered word is a quick indication the word cannot possibly be found in the associated document.
