Usage

computeDistanceFromPointToSetOfPoints(a, B, dist.fun = computeEuclideanDistance)

Arguments

a
[numeric(1)] Point given as a numeric vector.
B
[matrix] Point set (each row corresponds to a point).
dist.fun
[matrix] Distance function to compute distance between points x and y. Expects a single numeric vector d with the coordinate-wise differences di = (xi - yi). Default is computeEuclideanDist.
