gaia2::ForceIdentityDistance Class Reference

This metric forces the identity condition to be valid on the composed distance by checking first if the 2 points are equal and returning 0 if that is the case. More...

Detailed Description

This metric forces the identity condition to be valid on the composed distance by checking first if the 2 points are equal and returning 0 if that is the case.

Otherwise, it just returns the value of the composed distance.

NB: Equality is decided using the name of the points, not their contents.

Parameters
distancethe name of the distance to be compressed.
paramsthe parameters for creating the distance to be compressed

This function computes the distance between the two given points.

It needs to be implemented in each subclass. It takes as optional arguments the number of the segments on which to operate.

Implements gaia2::DistanceFunction.
