  /**
   * \brief Nearest-neighbor calculations
   *
   * This class solves the nearest-neighbor problm using a vantage-point tree
   * as described in \ref nearest.
   *
   * This class is templated so that it can handle arbitrary metric spaces as
   * follows:
   *
   * @tparam dist_t the type used for measuring distances; it can be a real or
   *   signed integer type; in typical geodetic applications, \e dist_t might
   *   be <code>double</code>.
   * @tparam pos_t the type for specifying the positions of points; geodetic
   *   application might bundled the latitude and longitude into a
   *   <code>std::pair<dist_t, dist_t></code>.
   * @tparam distfun_t the type of a function object which takes takes two
   *   positions (of type \e pos_t) and returns the distance (of type \e
   *   dist_t); in geodetic applications, this might be a class which is
   *   constructed with a Geodesic object and which implements a member
   *   function with a signature <code>dist_t operator() (const pos_t&, const
   *   pos_t&) const</code>, which returns the geodesic distance between two
   *   points.
   *
   * \note The distance measure must satisfy the triangle inequality, \f$
   * d(a,c) \le d(a,b) + d(b,c) \f$ for all points \e a, \e b, \e c.  The
   * geodesic distance (given by Geodesic::Inverse) does, while the great
   * ellipse distance and the rhumb line distance <i>do not</i>.  If you use
   * the ordinary Euclidean distance, i.e., \f$ \sqrt{(x_a-x_b)^2 +
   * (y_a-y_b)^2} \f$ for two dimensions, don't be tempted to leave out the
   * square root in the interests of "efficiency"; the squared distance does
   * not satisfy the triangle inequality!
   *
   * \note This is a "header-only" implementation and, as such, depends in a
   * minimal way on the rest of GeographicLib (the only dependency is through
   * the use of GeographicLib::GeographicErr for handling compile-time and
   * run-time exceptions).  Therefore, it is easy to extract this class from
   * the rest of GeographicLib and use it as a stand-alone facility.
   *
   * The \e dist_t type must support numeric_limits queries (specifically:
   * is_signed, is_integer, max(), digits).
   *
   * The NearestNeighbor object is constructed with a vector of points (type \e
   * pos_t) and a distance function (type \e distfun_t).  However the object
   * does \e not store the points.  When querying the object with Search(),
   * it's necessary to supply the same vector of points and the same distance
   * function.
   *
   * There's no capability in this implementation to add or remove points from
   * the set.  Instead Initialize() should be called to re-initialize the
   * object with the modified vector of points.
   *
   * Because of the overhead in constructing a NearestNeighbor object for a
   * large set of points, functions Save() and Load() are provided to save the
   * object to an external file.  operator<<(), operator>>() and <a
   * href="https://www.boost.org/libs/serialization/doc"> Boost
   * serialization</a> can also be used to save and restore a NearestNeighbor
   * object.  This is illustrated in the example.
   *
   * Example of use:
   * \include example-NearestNeighbor.cpp

     * The indices returned in \e ind are sorted by distance from \e query
     * (closest first).
     *
     * The simplest invocation is with just the 4 non-optional arguments.  This
     * returns the closest distance and the index to the closest point in
     * <i>ind</i><sub>0</sub>.  If there are several points equally close, then
     * <i>ind</i><sub>0</sub> gives the index of an arbirary one of them.  If
     * there's no closest point (because the set of points is empty), then \e
     * ind is empty and &minus;1 is returned.
     *
     * With \e exhaustive = true and \e tol = 0 (their default values), this
     * finds the indices of \e k closest neighbors to \e query whose distances
     * to \e query are in (\e mindist, \e maxdist].  If \e mindist and \e

     * prevent this point (and other coincident points) from being returned.
     *
     * If \e exhaustive = false, exit as soon as \e k results satisfying the
     * distance criteria are found.  If less than \e k results are returned
     * then the search was exhaustive even if \e exhaustive = false.
     *
     * If \e tol is positive, do an approximate search; in this case the
     * results are to be interpreted as follows: if the <i>k</i>'th distance is
     * \e dk, then all results with distances less than or equal \e dk &minus;
     * \e tol are correct; all others are suspect &mdash; there may be other
     * closer results with distances greater or equal to \e dk &minus; \e tol.
     * If less than \e k results are found, then the search is exact.
     *
     * \e mindist should be used to exclude a "small" neighborhood of the query
     * point (relative to the average spacing of the data).  If \e mindist is
     * large, the efficiency of the search deteriorates.
     *
     * \note Only the shortest distance is returned (as as the function value).
     * The distances to other points (indexed by <i>ind</i><sub><i>j</i></sub>
     * for \e j > 0) can be found by invoking \e dist again.
     *
     * \warning The arguments \e pts and \e dist must be identical to those
     * used to initialize the NearestNeighbor; if not, this function will
     * return some meaningless result (however, if the size of \e pts is wrong,
     * this function throw an exception).
     *
     * \warning The query point cannot be a NaN or infinite because then the
