Abstract

A method, computer product, and computer system of minimizing surprisal data comprising: at a source, reading and identifying characteristics of a genetic sequence of an organism; receiving an input of rank of at least two identified characteristics of the genetic sequence of the organism; generating a hierarchy of ranked, identified characteristics based on the rank of the at least two identified characteristics of the genetic sequence of the organism; comparing the hierarchy of ranked, identified characteristics to a repository of reference genomes; and if at least one reference genome from the repository matches the hierarchy of ranked, identified characteristics, breaking the matched reference genomes into pieces, combining pieces associated with the identified characteristics from at least one matched reference genome to form a filter pattern to be compared to the nucleotides of the genetic sequence of the organism, to obtain differences and create surprisal data.
