//! # Nearest Neighbors Search Algorithms and Data Structures
//!
//! Nearest neighbor search is a basic computational tool that is particularly relevant to machine learning,
//! where it is often believed that highdimensional datasets have low-dimensional intrinsic structure.
//! The basic nearest neighbor problem is formalized as follows: given a set \\( S \\) of \\( n \\) points in some metric space \\( (X, d) \\),
//! the problem is to preprocess \\( S \\) so that given a query point \\( p \in X \\), one can efficiently find a point \\( q \in S \\)
//! which minimizes \\( d(p, q) \\).
//!
//! [The most straightforward nearest neighbor search algorithm](linear_search/index.html) finds k nearest points using the brute-force approach where distances between all
//! pairs of points in the dataset are calculated. This approach scales as \\( O(nd^2) \\) where \\( n = \lvert S \rvert \\), is number of samples and \\( d \\) is number
//! of dimentions in metric space. As the number of samples grows, the brute-force approach quickly becomes infeasible.
//!
//! [Cover Tree](cover_tree/index.html) is data structure that partitions metric spaces to speed up nearest neighbor search. Cover tree requires \\( O(n) \\) space and
//! have nice theoretical properties:
//!
//! * construction time: \\( O(c^6n \log n) \\),
//! * insertion time \\( O(c^6 \log n) \\),
//! * removal time: \\( O(c^6 \log n) \\),
//! * query time: \\( O(c^{12} \log n) \\),
//!
//! Where \\( c \\) is a constant.
//!
