  2. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

    It can be extended to infinite-dimensional vector spaces as the L 2 norm or L 2 distance. [25] The Euclidean distance gives Euclidean space the structure of a topological space, the Euclidean topology, with the open balls (subsets of points at less than a given distance from a given point) as its neighborhoods. [26]

  3. Color difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_difference

    As most definitions of color difference are distances within a color space, the standard means of determining distances is the Euclidean distance.If one presently has an RGB (red, green, blue) tuple and wishes to find the color difference, computationally one of the easiest is to consider R, G, B linear dimensions defining the color space.

  4. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_from_a_point_to_a...

    The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry. It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line. The formula for calculating it can be derived and expressed in several ways.

  5. Distance from a point to a plane - Wikipedia

    The formula for the closest point to the origin may be expressed more succinctly using notation from linear algebra. The expression a x + b y + c z {\displaystyle ax+by+cz} in the definition of a plane is a dot product ( a , b , c ) ⋅ ( x , y , z ) {\displaystyle (a,b,c)\cdot (x,y,z)} , and the expression a 2 + b 2 + c 2 {\displaystyle a^{2 ...

  6. Euclidean distance matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance_matrix

    In mathematics, a Euclidean distance matrix is an n×n matrix representing the spacing of a set of n points in Euclidean space. For points x 1 , x 2 , … , x n {\displaystyle x_{1},x_{2},\ldots ,x_{n}} in k -dimensional space ℝ k , the elements of their Euclidean distance matrix A are given by squares of distances between them.

  7. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norm_(mathematics)

    It defines a distance function called the Euclidean length, distance, or distance. The set of vectors in R n + 1 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n+1}} whose Euclidean norm is a given positive constant forms an n {\displaystyle n} -sphere .

  8. Signed distance function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_distance_function

    If, further, Γ is a region sufficiently close to the boundary of Ω that f is twice continuously differentiable on it, then there is an explicit formula involving the Weingarten map W x for the Jacobian of changing variables in terms of the signed distance function and nearest boundary point.

  9. Statistical distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_distance

    A metric on a set X is a function (called the distance function or simply distance) d : X × X → R + (where R + is the set of non-negative real numbers). For all x, y, z in X, this function is required to satisfy the following conditions: d(x, y) ≥ 0 (non-negativity) d(x, y) = 0 if and only if x = y (identity of indiscernibles.
