noeliarico/dists: Calculate Distances Between Objects Using a Common Interface

General interface for calculating distance between objects. The package aims to provide a common interface for computing distance functions using a function called distance() with a parameter containing the name of the distance to be used (Euclidean, Jaccard, Manhattan, Cosine...). Also, it works with tibbles as input instead of matrices (dist() classic function only works with matrices). The distances are computed in C to speed up the execution. V. B. Surya Prasath et al.
