Description: Implements exact and approximate methods for nearest
        neighbor detection, in a framework that allows them to be
        easily switched within Bioconductor packages or workflows.
        Exact searches can be performed using the k-means for k-nearest
        neighbors algorithm or with vantage point trees. Approximate
        searches can be performed using the Annoy or HNSW libraries.
        Searching on either Euclidean or Manhattan distances is
        supported. Parallelization is achieved for all methods by using
        BiocParallel. Functions are also provided to search for all
        neighbors within a given distance.
