sklearn.metrics.pairwise.manhattan_distances()

Compute the L1 distances between the vectors in X and Y.

With sum_over_features equal to False it returns the componentwise distances.

Examples

>>> from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import manhattan_distances
>>> manhattan_distances([[3]], [[3]])
array([[ 0.]])
>>> manhattan_distances([[3]], [[2]])
array([[ 1.]])
>>> manhattan_distances([[2]], [[3]])
array([[ 1.]])
>>> manhattan_distances([[1, 2], [3, 4]],         [[1, 2], [0, 3]])
array([[ 0.,  2.],
       [ 4.,  4.]])
>>> import numpy as np
>>> X = np.ones((1, 2))
>>> y = 2 * np.ones((2, 2))
>>> manhattan_distances(X, y, sum_over_features=False)
array([[ 1.,  1.],
       [ 1.,  1.]]...)
