  2. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    find the value (if any) that is bound to a given key. The argument to this operation is the key, and the value is returned from the operation. If no value is found, some lookup functions raise an exception, while others return a default value (such as zero, null, or a specific value passed to the constructor).

  3. Inverted index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_index

    In computer science, an inverted index (also referred to as a postings list, postings file, or inverted file) is a database index storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a table, or in a document or a set of documents (named in contrast to a forward index, which maps from documents to content).

  4. Lightning Memory-Mapped Database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Memory-Mapped...

    As LMDB is memory-mapped, it can return direct pointers to memory addresses of keys and values through its API, thereby avoiding unnecessary and expensive copying of memory. This results in greatly-increased performance (especially when the values stored are extremely large), and expands the potential use cases for LMDB.

  5. Dictionary coder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dictionary_coder

    A dictionary coder, also sometimes known as a substitution coder, is a class of lossless data compression algorithms which operate by searching for matches between the text to be compressed and a set of strings contained in a data structure (called the 'dictionary') maintained by the encoder. When the encoder finds such a match, it substitutes ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word2vec

    IWE combines Word2vec with a semantic dictionary mapping technique to tackle the major challenges of information extraction from clinical texts, which include ambiguity of free text narrative style, lexical variations, use of ungrammatical and telegraphic phases, arbitrary ordering of words, and frequent appearance of abbreviations and acronyms ...

  7. Entity–attribute–value model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–attribute–value...

    An entity–attribute–value model (EAV) is a data model optimized for the space-efficient storage of sparse—or ad-hoc—property or data values, intended for situations where runtime usage patterns are arbitrary, subject to user variation, or otherwise unforeseeable using a fixed design. The use-case targets applications which offer a large ...

    In 1979, he showed that this was the lower bound for a certain class of algorithms, that include the Galler-Fischer structure. [5] In 1989, Fredman and Saks showed that Ω ( α ( n ) ) {\displaystyle \Omega (\alpha (n))} (amortized) words of O ( log ⁡ n ) {\displaystyle O(\log n)} bits must be accessed by any disjoint-set data structure per ...

  9. Reset vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reset_vector

    The reset vector for the Intel 80286 processor is at physical address FFFFF0h (16 bytes below 16 MB). The value of the CS register at reset is F000h with the descriptor base set to FF0000h and the value of the IP register at reset is FFF0h to form the segmented address FF0000h:FFF0h, which maps to physical address FFFFF0h in real mode.
