Abstract
Methods and apparatus teach a digital spectrum of a data file. The digital spectrum is used to map a file's position in multi-dimensional space. This position relative to another file's position reveals closest neighbors. Certain of the closest neighbors are grouped together to define a set. Overlapping members in the groups may be further differentiated from one another by partitioning. An optimized partition of set S of N overlapping groups yields a maximum strength for groups and members in that partition. Among other things, the optimized partition includes relative strengths of every individual member in every possible partition and weighting functions applied to the relative strengths and to subgroups of files within the partitions.
