%FASTMAPD Fast Linear Map of Euclidean distances
%
%       W = FASTMAPD(D,K)
%
% INPUT
%   D   NxN symmetric dissimilarity matrix (dataset)
%   K   Chosen dimensionality (optional; K is automatically detected)
%
% OUTPUT
%   W   Linear map of Euclidean distances D into a Euclidean space
%
% DEFAULT
%   K   = []
%
% DESCRIPTION
% This is an implementation of the FastMap algorithm. D is assumed to be 
% a square Euclidean distance matrix and K is the desired dimensionality of 
% the projection. However, if the dimensionality M of the original data is
% smaller than K, then only a mapping to a M-dimensional space is returned.
%
% If D does not have a Euclidean behavior, a projection is done to the fewest
% dimensions that explain the Euclidean part the best, i.e. do not deal with
% negative squared distances.
