public final class ExponentialWeight
extends Object
implements WeightFunction

Exponential Weight function, scaled such that the result it 0.1 at distance == max exp(-2.3025850929940455 * distance/max) This is similar to the Gaussian weight function, except distance/max is not squared. -2.3025850929940455 is log(-.1) to achieve the intended range of 1.0 - 0.1
