A novel, computationally tractable algorithm flags in big matrices every column associated in any way with others or a dependent variable, with much higher power when columns are linked like mutations in chromosomes

Scanning exhaustively a big data matrix DM for subsets of independent variables IVs that are associated with a dependent variable DV is computationally tractable only for 1- and 2-…
