COMMENTS
A binary index of n is any position of a 1 in its reversed binary expansion. The binary indices of n are row n of A048793. We define the set-system with BII-number n to be obtained by taking the binary indices of each binary index of n. Every finite set of finite nonempty sets has a different BII-number. For example, 18 has reversed binary expansion (0,1,0,0,1), and since the binary indices of 2 and 5 are {2} and {1,3} respectively, the BII-number of {{2},{1,3}} is 18. Elements of a set-system are sometimes called edges.
The enumeration of these set-systems by number of covered vertices is A102896.
EXAMPLE
The sequence of all set-systems that are closed under union together with their BII-numbers begins:

4: {{1,2}}
5: {{1},{1,2}}
6: {{2},{1,2}}
7: {{1},{2},{1,2}}
8: {{3}}
16: {{1,3}}
17: {{1},{1,3}}
24: {{3},{1,3}}
25: {{1},{3},{1,3}}
32: {{2,3}}
34: {{2},{2,3}}
40: {{3},{2,3}}
42: {{2},{3},{2,3}}
64: {{1,2,3}}
65: {{1},{1,2,3}}
66: {{2},{1,2,3}}
68: {{1,2},{1,2,3}}
69: {{1},{1,2},{1,2,3}}
70: {{2},{1,2},{1,2,3}}
71: {{1},{2},{1,2},{1,2,3}}
72: {{3},{1,2,3}}
