%PSDISTM Square Pseudo-Euclidean Distance Between Two Datasets
%
%   D = PSDISTM(A,SIG)
%     OR
%   D = PSDISTM(A,B,SIG)
%
% INPUT
%   A    NxK Matrix or dataset
%   B    MxK Matrix or dataset
%   SIG  2x1 vector being the signature of the pseudo-Euclidean space;
%        SIG(1)+SIG(2)=K
%
% OUTPUT
%   D   NxM dissimilarity matrix or dataset
%
% DESCRIPTION
% Computation of the square pseudo-Euclidean distance matrix D between two sets
% of vectors, A and B. The pseudo-Euclidean distance with the signature SIG
% (e.g. SIG = [10 5]) between vectors X and Y is comuted as an indefinite
% 'Euclidean' distance:
%     D(X,Y) = (X-Y)'*J*(X-Y),
% where J is a diagonal matrix with 1, followed by -1.
% J = diag ([ONES(SIG(1),1);  -ONES(sig(2),1)]);
%
% 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.
%
% REMARKS
% Note that square pseudo-Euclidean distances can be negative.
