Abstract
Aspects of the present invention provide a tool for hash-based indexing. In an embodiment, a ranked dataset having a plurality of data items is obtained. Every data item in the ranked dataset has a ranking with respect to every other data item in the ranked dataset. A ranking triplet matrix is created based on the ranked dataset. The ranking triplet matrix has a set of ranking triplets, each of which indicates the relative ranking for a pair of the data items in the ranked dataset. This ranking triplet can be merged with a hash table obtained using a standard hash function and the data items can be indexed based on the results.
