Cohort-based prediction of a future event

A method comprising:

• a processor generating a first bit array, wherein the first bit array comprises a first set of values that describes a first set of characteristics of a first single entity when said first single entity experiences a first event, wherein the processor receives the first set of values as electronic signals from a first set of physical test devices, wherein the first set of characteristics do not cause the first event, wherein the first event is a medical pharmaceutical treatment, wherein the first set of values generated by the physical test devices does not describe the first event, and wherein the first set of values is not a result of the first event;
• the processor determining that outputs from a specific set of physical test devices are unaffected by the medical pharmaceutical treatment;
• the processor selecting the specific set of physical test devices as the first set of physical test devices;
• the processor generating a second bit array, wherein the second bit array comprises a second set of values that identifies a second set of characteristics of an event cohort, wherein the event cohort is made up of multiple other entities that experience a second event, wherein the second event comprises a medical condition, wherein the multiple other entities never experienced the first event, wherein the processor receives the second set of values from a second set of physical test devices that is functionally different from the first set of physical test devices, wherein the second set of characteristics alone do not cause the second event, and wherein no shared common characteristics are represented in both the first bit array and the second bit array;
• the processor receiving a third bit array that describes characteristics of a second single entity that is experiencing the first event;
• the processor determining that the third bit array comprises values from the first bit array and the second bit array;
• and
• in response to the processor determining that the third bit array comprises values from the first bit array and the second bit array, administering a medical pharmaceutical treatment to the second single entity for the medical condition, wherein the second event further comprises the medical pharmaceutical treatment for the medical condition.

• the processor identifying an event characteristic that is associated with a third event, wherein the third event has been predetermined to be unrelated to the second event, and wherein the third event occurs contemporaneously with the second event;
• and
• the processor removing any bit from the second bit array that describes the event characteristic that is associated with the third event;
• the processor receiving a third bit array that describes characteristics of a second single entity that is experiencing the first event;
• the processor determining that the third bit array comprises values from the first bit array and the second bit array;
