35. A system comprising: a processor; a magnitude resolution system configured to: receive a target vector, determine a total number of dimensions associated with the received target vector, and process one of the target vector dimensions to determine a total number of magnitudes assigned to the processed target vector dimension; a source vector feature detection system configured to: receive a source vector, determine a total number of dimensions associated with the received source vector, and process one of the source vector dimensions to determine a total number of magnitudes assigned to the processed source vector dimension; and a vector comparison system configured to compare the target vector with the source vector to obtain a similarity measure.
