AverageDistance(seurat_object, group, reduction = "pca", dims = 1:30,
  distance = "euclidian", split_by = NULL, output = "seurat",
  parallel = FALSE)

`seurat_object`	A seurat object
`group`	Seurat Categories or groups for which the distances between are calculated. Cell wise data.
`reduction`	Dimensionality reduction data to use
`dims`	Which dimensions to use
`distance`	Point to point distance to use. Options are "euclidean", "maximum", "manhattan", "canberra", "binary", "minkowski"
`split_by`	Second seurat category to split the calculations over.
`output`	Output type. Default is "seurat". Options are "seurat" (Seurat S4 object), "list" (List of tables by split_by), "seurat_list" (List of Seurat objects). Seurat objects returned have the distance data stored internally.
`parallel`	It is possible to run this process in parallel across multiple computers using BiocParallel. TRUE will use and FALSE will not. If this is set to TRUE then it will not be able to print out progress.
