  2. Inverted index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_index

    The purpose of an inverted index is to allow fast full-text searches, at a cost of increased processing when a document is added to the database. [2] The inverted file may be the database file itself, rather than its index. It is the most popular data structure used in document retrieval systems, [3] used on a large scale for example in search ...

  3. Search engine indexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_indexing

    The forward index is sorted to transform it to an inverted index. The forward index is essentially a list of pairs consisting of a document and a word, collated by the document. Converting the forward index to an inverted index is only a matter of sorting the pairs by the words. In this regard, the inverted index is a word-sorted forward index.

  5. Database index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index

    A database index is a data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a database table at the cost of additional writes and storage space to maintain the index data structure. Indexes are used to quickly locate data without having to search every row in a database table every time said table is accessed.

  6. Reverse index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_index

    In database management systems, a reverse key index strategy reverses the key value before entering it in the index. [1] E.g., the value 24538 becomes 83542 in the index. Reversing the key value is particularly useful for indexing data such as sequence numbers , where each new key value is greater than the prior value, i.e., values ...

  7. Boolean model of information retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_model_of...

    The (standard) Boolean model of information retrieval (BIR) [1] is a classical information retrieval (IR) model and, at the same time, the first and most-adopted one. [2] The BIR is based on Boolean logic and classical set theory in that both the documents to be searched and the user's query are conceived as sets of terms (a bag-of-words model).

  8. Project Jupyter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Jupyter

    Jupyter Notebook is built using several open-source libraries, including IPython, ZeroMQ, Tornado, jQuery, Bootstrap, and MathJax. A Jupyter Notebook application is a browser-based REPL containing an ordered list of input/output cells which can contain code, text (using Github Flavored Markdown), mathematics, plots and rich media.

  9. Inversion list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_list

    In computer science, an inversion list is a data structure that describes a set of non-overlapping numeric ranges, stored in increasing order. [1] The set is stored in an array. Every other element is the first element of a range, and every other element is the first element after that range (a half-open range).
