public class SOF<N,O>
extends AbstractDistanceBasedSpatialOutlier<N,O>

The Spatial Outlier Factor (SOF) is a spatial LOF variation. Since the "reachability distance" of LOF cannot be used canonically in the bichromatic case, this part of LOF is dropped and the exact distance is used instead.

A LOF variation simplified with reachDist(o,p) == dist(o,p).
