1. A method for processing floating point numbers, comprising:

  • detecting floating point (FP) numbers in a dataset;

    rounding bits in least significant bit (LSB) positions of each detected FP number to a set binary value; and

    mapping the rounded bits from the LSB positions to most significant bit (MSB) positions of each detected FP number to increase a chance of matching bit patterns between pairs of detected FP numbers.
