Package elki.distance.minkowski

Class MaximumDistance

java.lang.Object

elki.distance.minkowski.LPNormDistance

elki.distance.minkowski.MaximumDistance

All Implemented Interfaces:

Distance<NumberVector>, Norm<NumberVector>, NumberVectorDistance<NumberVector>, PrimitiveDistance<NumberVector>, SpatialPrimitiveDistance<NumberVector>

@Alias({"maximum","max","chebyshev"})
public class MaximumDistance
extends LPNormDistance

Maximum distance for NumberVectors.

The maximum distance is defined as: \[ \text{Maximum}(\vec{x},\vec{y}) := \max_i |x_i-y_i| \] and can be seen as limiting case of the LPNormDistance for \( p \rightarrow \infty \).

Since:

0.3
