@Alias(value="de.lmu.ifi.dbs.elki.distance.distancefunction.WeightedSquaredEuclideanDistanceFunction")
public class WeightedSquaredEuclideanDistanceFunction
extends AbstractSpatialNorm
implements WeightedNumberVectorDistanceFunction<NumberVector>

Squared Euclidean distance for NumberVectors. This results in the same rankings as Euclidean distance, but saves computing the square root.
