  2. 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 ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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

    Some databases can do this, others just won't use the index. In the phone book example with a composite index created on the columns (city, last_name, first_name), if we search by giving exact values for all the three fields, search time is minimal—but if we provide the values for city and first_name only, the search uses only the city field ...

  6. Bit-reversal permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit-reversal_permutation

    In the random-access machine commonly used in algorithm analysis, a simple algorithm that scans the indexes in input order and swaps whenever the scan encounters an index whose reversal is a larger number would perform a linear number of data moves. [10] However, computing the reversal of each index may take a non-constant number of steps.

  7. de Bruijn index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Bruijn_index

    Each de Bruijn index is a natural number that represents an occurrence of a variable in a λ-term, and denotes the number of binders that are in scope between that occurrence and its corresponding binder. The following are some examples: The term λx. λy. x, sometimes called the K combinator, is written as λ λ 2 with de Bruijn indices.

  9. Trigram search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigram_search

    Searching for this string in a database with a trigram-based index would involve finding which objects contain as many of the three trigrams as possible. As a concrete example of using trigram search to search for a regular expression query, consider searching for the string ab[cd]e , where the brackets denote that the third character in the ...
