About mvptree

The MVP tree is a distance-based data structure for the storage and retrieval of n-dimensional datapoints. It relies on the relative distances from selected vantage points to index the points into a tree-like hierarchy. It thus cuts the search space into distinct 'hyper-spheres' around each vantage point.
