Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package ann-tools, which is
part of the math section, and maintained by Rafael Laboissiere
<rafael at debian.org>. 

This package contains : Approximate Nearest Neighbor Searching library
(tools).

ANN is a library written in C++, which supports data structures and
algorithms for both exact and approximate nearest neighbor searching
in arbitrarily high dimensions.  ANN assumes that distances
are measured using any class of distance functions called Minkowski
metrics. These include the well known Euclidean distance, Manhattan
distance, and max distance. ANN performs quite efficiently for point
sets ranging in size from thousands to hundreds of thousands, and in
dimensions as high as 20.

This package contains the ann2fig (display ANN output in fig foramt)
and the ann_sample (a sample demonstration for ANN) programs.
