Method and apparatus for making correlations and predictions using a finite field of data of unorganized and/or partially structured elements

Abstract

Abstract Kinds of data items to be examined are determined in terms of possible applicability to objects of examination and applied to objects of examination (which may be physical structures, chemical compounds, etc.) to produce a data package representative of each object in the field. The processing of the data packages may vary in accordance with a particular parameter, profile, pattern and associated properties which are being investigated. Processing may, for example, involve analyses, sorting, treeing, arranging or other types of manipulation of data packages. Preprocessing data by adding redundant data to gain symmetry and intelligence additions including procedural structures or codes for handling the data are among many possibilities enabling processing of the reconstituted data. Feedback and reprocessing of data through one or many stages, one or many times is also contemplated. The results of the procedure may enable predictions or promote correlations, such as providing preferred arrangements such as sequencing or geometrical design, identify unknowns related in some manner to the objects of examination, or enable many other possibilities for deducing information.
