Detailed Description

Distance Metrics (DM) compute distances between two configurations.

A Distance Metric (DM) computes a meaningful value representing the feasibility of transitioning between two configurations $c_1$ and $c_2$. A DM $\delta(c_1, c_2)$ should be non-negative, and it should be zero when $c_1 \equiv c_2$. The base method can be found in DistanceMetricMethod.h.
