Description
Adds a
Distance
interface inorg.tribuo.math.distance
, along with implementations for Cosine, L1 and L2. Users can supply their own distance computation function by implementing the interface. All models which were previously migrated to useDistanceType
now store aDistance
instance, and the enum holds a singleton of each of the built in types for easy use in CLI programs and as default arguments.cc @geoffreydstewart
Motivation
The set of available distances was too limiting, fixes #284.
