Abstract
A system for measuring similarity between a binary query vector and a plurality of binary candidate vectors includes a storage unit and a processor. The storage unit stores the binary query vector and the plurality of candidate vectors, and the processor performs Tanimoto calculations in terms of Hamming distances. The processor includes a Tanimoto to Hamming threshold converter, a Hamming measurer, and a Hamming comparator. The Tanimoto to Hamming threshold converter converts a Tanimoto threshold into a Hamming threshold. The Hamming measurer measures the Hamming distances between the candidate vectors and the query vector. The Hamming comparator selects candidate vectors whose Hamming distance from the query vector is less than or equal to the Hamming threshold.
