%NORMM Apply Minkowski-P distance normalization map
% 
%   B = A*NORMM(P)
%   B = NORMM(A,P)
% 
% INPUT
%   A  Dataset or matrix
%   P  Order of the Minkowski distance (optional; default: 1)
%
% OUTPUT
%   B  Dataset or matrix of normalized Minkowski-P distances 
%
% DESCRIPTION
% Normalizes the distances of all objects in the dataset A such that their
% Minkowski-P distances to the origin equal one. For P=1 (default), this is 
% useful for normalizing the probabilities. For 1-dimensional datasets 
% (SIZE(A,2)=1), a second feature is added before the normalization such 
% that A(:,2)=1-A(:,1).
% 
% Note that NORMM(P) or NORMM([],P) is a fixed mapping.
