Unit: SDL_sdlbase
Class: none
Declaration: TDistMode = (dmJaccard, dmManhattan, dmEuclid, dmEuclidSqr, dmDice, dmUserDef);

The type declaration TDistMode defines the possible operating modes of the methods CalcDistMat and DistanceOfObjects. Currently the following distances can be calculated:

dmJaccard similarity measure first defined by P. Jaccard (sometimes also referred to as Tanimoto coefficient)
