%DISTMAHA Mahalanobis distance
% 
% 	D = DISTMAHA (A,U,G)
% 
% INPUT
%		A		Dataset
%		U		Mean(s) (optional; default: estimate on classes in A)
%		G		Covariance(s) (optional; default: estimate on classes in A)
%
% OUTPUT
%		D		Mahalanobis distance matrix
%
% DESCRIPTION
% Computes the M*N Mahanalobis distance matrix of all vectors in M*K dataset
% A to an N*K dataset of points U, using the covariance matrix or matrices
% G. G should be either be one K*K matrix, or a K*K*N matrix containing a
% covariance matrix for each point in U.
%
% When U and G are not specified, it estimates the C*C Mahalanobis distance
% matrix between all classes in A: the distance between the means,
% relative to the average per-class covariance matrix.
