Metric - Minkowski distance between two points
The java program finds distance between two points using minkowski distance equation . when power is set P=1, minkowski metric results as same as manhattan distance equation and when set P=2, minkowski metric results as same as euclidean distance equation. 1-Dimensional distance It measures the distance between two points . Each point lies on a line and has one element. 2-Dimensional distance It measures the distance between two points. Each point lies on 2D cartesian plane and has 2 elements. N-Dimensional distance It measures the distance between two points and each point has N elements. Example Calculation This is an example calculation shown below explain how to find the distance between two vectors using Minkowski distance formula . A vector,array of elements declared and initialized in java using one dimensional array. int A[] = { 5 ,3 }; // 2D vector A int B[] = { 2,1 }; // 2D vector B int P =3; P th ...
