  Description     : GNU R accurate kNN implementation with multiple distance measures
 Similarly to the 'FNN' package, this package allows calculation of the k
 nearest neighbors (kNN) of a data matrix. The implementation is based on
 cover trees introduced by Alina Beygelzimer, Sham Kakade, and John
 Langford (2006) <doi:10.1145/1143844.1143857>.
