public final class ExactMatchDistance extends Object
Exact Match Distance:Exact Match distance is an extension of Hamming distance but to non-binary strings, in this case, permutations. It is the count of the number of positions for which the two permutations contain different elements.
Runtime: O(n), where n is the permutation length.
Exact match distance was introduced in:
S. Ronald, "More distance functions for order-based encodings," in Proc. IEEE CEC. IEEE Press, 1998, pp. 558–563.
