) const

Find the k nearest neighbours of query.

If the search finds less than k points, the empty entries in dists2 will be filled with InvalidValue and the indices with InvalidIndex. If you must query more than one point at once, use the version of the knn() function taking matrices as input, because it is much faster.

Parameters
queryquery point
indicesindices of nearest neighbours, must be of size k
dists2squared distances to nearest neighbours, must be of size k
knumber of nearest neighbour requested
epsilonmaximal ratio of error for approximate search, 0 for exact search; has no effect if the number of neighbour found is smaller than the number requested
optionFlagssearch options, a bitwise OR of elements of SearchOptionFlags
maxRadiusmaximum radius in which to search, can be used to prune search, is not affected by epsilon
Returns
if creationOptionFlags contains TOUCH_STATISTICS, return the number of point touched, otherwise return 0
