@Title(value="File based float distance for database objects.")
@Description(value="Loads float distance values from an external text file.")
public class FileBasedFloatDistanceFunction
extends AbstractDBIDRangeDistanceFunction

Distance function that is based on float distances given by a distance matrix of an external ASCII file. Note: parsing an ASCII file is rather expensive. See AsciiDistanceParser for the default input format. TODO: use a float[] instead of the hash map.
