As with many large medical and life insurance business, Medavie Blue Cross has developed a large repository of information from multiple database sources that come from their diversity of clients such as pharmacies, physicians' offices, and clinics, which is continuously being updated with new monthly information for its billing and claims process. Such a wealth of information may be explored to find new patterns of fraud. However this wealth and diversity of data also presents a challenge to this task commonly referred to as the 'curse of dimensionality' coined by Richard E. Bellman related to trying to handle this search in a tractable manner.

与许多大型医疗和人寿保险公司一样，Medavie Blue Cross已经从多个数据库来源开发了一个大型信息库，这些信息库来自药房、医生办公室和诊所等不同的客户，并且每月不断更新新的信息，用于其计费和索赔流程。可以利用如此丰富的信息来发现新的欺诈模式。然而，这种数据的丰富性和多样性也对这项任务提出了挑战，该任务通常被称为“维度的诅咒”，由Richard E. Bellman提出，试图以一种可处理的方式处理这种搜索。
