Detailed Description

template<class T>
class cvr::distanceType< T >

This class defines the appropriate return types when calculating the distance between two values of type T.

These can be simple types like int or double or lti types like vector<T>, rgbaPixel, etc. There are three different distance types:

• distance_type is used when a simple distance is calculated between two instances of T which does not involve accumulation of squares or typical floating point operations.
• square_distance_type is used for the result of distances that involve the square of the type T.
• fp_distance_type is used for distances that involve floating point operations such as the sqrt or log functions.

Member Typedef Documentation

template<class T>

typedef distanceType<typename T::value_type>::distance_type cvr::distanceType< T >::distance_type

Suggested distance type for distances that use simple accumulation of type elements (for example l1Distantor).

template<class T>

typedef distanceType<typename T::value_type>::fp_distance_type cvr::distanceType< T >::fp_distance_type

Suggested distance type for distances that use accumulation of type elements or their squares and use a typical floating point (fp) operation like sqrt or log on that.

(for example l2Distantor).

template<class T>

typedef distanceType<typename T::value_type>::square_distance_type cvr::distanceType< T >::square_distance_type

Suggested distance type for distances that use accumulation of squares of type elements (for example l2SqrDistantor).
