Parameters:

a - First descriptor

b - Second descriptor

Returns:

Euclidean distance

euclideanSq

public static double euclideanSq(TupleDesc_F64 a,
                                 TupleDesc_F64 b)

Returns the Euclidean distance squared between the two descriptors.

Parameters:

a - First descriptor

b - Second descriptor

Returns:

Euclidean distance squared

euclideanSq

public static double euclideanSq(TupleDesc_F32 a,
                                 TupleDesc_F32 b)

Returns the Euclidean distance squared between the two descriptors.

Parameters:

a - First descriptor

b - Second descriptor

correlation

public static double correlation(TupleDesc_F64 a,
                                 TupleDesc_F64 b)

Correlation score

Parameters:

a - First descriptor

b - Second descriptor
