Hi Hello There,

Index doesn't seem the correct word in this context, but it's a good word to ponder.

Thank you

The closest I can think of is regression.<br />
<br />
But: after &quot;compression&quot; of the data to that single point, there is no reverse operation for extracting the data.<br />
<br />
The only thing else, would be a function.

But: after "compression" of the data to that single point, there is no reverse operation for extracting the data.

The only thing else, would be a function.

What about <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_analysis" rel="ugc">Cluster Analysis</a>? It can "compact" objects to which your points belong to.

What about Cluster Analysis [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_analysis]? It can "compact" objects to which your points belong to.

I consider that a type of reverse engineering. For example, in Excel, when you double click on a formula, it will reveal the source data. When you click on a chart, you can click to reveal the data that generated that graph. When I try to figure out how my computer works, I take it apart and examine the pieces.&nbsp;<br>If you can tell us more about the scenario, perhaps we can be more specific.

Thank you for your input. The term I expression I decided upon was; A 'focal point' derived from a data compaction iteration.&nbsp;

Hi EE,
Grammar query is there a word in the English language to describe the process of when you compacted a series of data points into a single reference point, and that reference point can be used to discover all the data points it was derived from.  
Any assistance is appreciated my apologies for this rather metaphysical question.
Thank you. 

Is their a word to describe this?

A miscellany is defined as a "collection of various pieces of writing by different authors", but it has come to mean something "Of items gathered or considered together of various types or from different sources" or "a collection or group composed of members or elements of different kinds". The word "miscellaneous" comes from the Latin word "miscere", meaning "to mix." You might have heard the expression "a mixed bag," which applies when you don't quite know what you're going to get. More commonly, a miscellaneous group is made up of an odd group of things that don't fit anywhere else.

Miscellaneous
