The D2M metric.
Strictly speaking‚ D2M [ADK01] does not belong to this
class of metrics that are derived from a probabilistic interpretation‚ but is also
fast to compute. Historically‚ it preceded the WED metric‚ and the simple
formula is related to it‚ and hence it is presented here for completeness.
This metric is purely empirical‚ although it is proven to always be less than the
Elmore metric.
