All Implemented Interfaces:

org.api4.java.common.math.IMetric<double[]>, IDistanceMetric
```
public class ManhattanDistance
extends java.lang.Object
implements IDistanceMetric
```
Implementation of the Manhattan distance for time series. The Manhattan distance for two time series A and B of length n is defined as \sum_{i=0}^{n} |A_i - B_i|. Therefore, it is required for A and B to be of the same length.
