An "inverted search" project involves implementing a type of search engine that uses an inverted index data structure for efficient and fast retrieval of information. The inverted search approach is widely used in various information retrieval systems, including search engines, databases, and document management systems.
An inverted index is an index data structure storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a database file, or in a document or a set of documents.
The purpose of storing an index is to optimize speed and performance in finding relevant documents for a search query. Without an index, the search engine would scan every document in the corpus, which would require considerable time and computing power.
