//! # Mahalanobis Distance
//!
//! The Mahalanobis distance (MD) is the distance between two points in multivariate space.
//! In a regular Euclidean space the distance between any two points can be measured with [Euclidean distance](../euclidian/index.html).
//! For uncorrelated variables, the Euclidean distance equals the MD. However, if two or more variables are correlated the measurements become impossible
//! with Euclidean distance because the axes are no longer at right angles to each other. MD on the other hand, is scale-invariant,
//! it takes into account the covariance matrix of the dataset when calculating distance between 2 points that belong to the same space as the dataset.
//!
//! MD between two vectors \\( x \in ℝ^n \\) and \\( y \in ℝ^n \\) is defined as
//! \\[ d(x, y) = \sqrt{(x - y)^TS^{-1}(x - y)}\\]
//!
//! where \\( S \\) is the covariance matrix of the dataset.
//!
//! Example:
//!
//! ```
//! use smartcore::linalg::basic::matrix::DenseMatrix;
//! use smartcore::linalg::basic::arrays::ArrayView2;
//! use smartcore::metrics::distance::Distance;
//! use smartcore::metrics::distance::mahalanobis::Mahalanobis;
//!
//! let data = DenseMatrix::from_2d_array(&[
//!                   &[64., 580., 29.],
//!                   &[66., 570., 33.],
//!                   &[68., 590., 37.],
//!                   &[69., 660., 46.],
//!                   &[73., 600., 55.],
//! ]).unwrap();
//!
//! let a = data.mean_by(0);
//! let b = vec![66., 640., 44.];
//!
//! let mahalanobis = Mahalanobis::new(&data);
//!
//! mahalanobis.distance(&a, &b);
//! ```
