%CORRDISTM  Distance Matrix based on Correlations
%
%   D = CORRDISTM(A,B)
%       OR
%   D = CORRDISTM(A)
%
% INPUT
%   A   NxK Matrix or dataset
%   B   MxK Matrix or dataset (optional; default: B=A)
%
% OUTPUT
%   D   NxM dissimilarity matrix or prdataset; D in [0,1]
%
% DESCRIPTION
% Computes the distance matrix D between two sets of vectors, A and B.
% Distances between vectors X and Y are computed based on their correlation as:
%     CORR(X,Y) = COV(X,Y) / sqrt(Var(X) * VAR(Y))
%     D(X,Y)    = (1 - CORR)/2
%
% If A and B are datasets, then D is a dataset as well with the labels defined
% by the labels of A and the feature labels defined by the labels of B. If A is
% not a dataset, but a matrix of doubles, then D is also a matrix of doubles.
%
% DEFAULT
%   B = A
