public class PCACorrelationDistance
extends CorrelationDistance<PCACorrelationDistance>

The correlation distance is a special Distance that indicates the dissimilarity between correlation connected objects. The correlation distance between two points is a pair consisting of the correlation dimension of two points and the euclidean distance between the two points.
