public interface SMAggregateMinkowski extends SMAggregateWeighted
The Minkowski aggregation is a generalization of this weighted average. The higher the value of the parameter p ≥ 1, the higher is the influence of the attribute with the highest local similarity. For p to infinity this aggregation function becomes the maximum aggregation.

Φ(s, …, si) = (∑ni=1i · spi))1/p
