/**
* <p>Computes the differential multi-information of a given multivariate set of
* observations (implementing {@link MultiInfoCalculator}),
* using Kraskov-Stoegbauer-Grassberger (KSG) estimation (see Kraskov et al., below).
* This is an abstract class to gather common functionality between the two
* algorithms defined by Kraskov et al.
* Two child classes {@link MultiInfoCalculatorKraskov1} and
* {@link MultiInfoCalculatorKraskov2} then
* actually implement the two algorithms in the Kraskov et al. paper</p>
*
* <p>Usage is as per the paradigm outlined for {@link MultiInfoCalculator},
* with:
* <ul>
* <li>For constructors see the child classes.</li>
* <li>Further properties are defined in {@link #setProperty(String, String)}.</li>
* <li>Computed values are in <b>nats</b>, not bits!</li>
* </ul>
* </p>
*
* <p>Finally, note that {@link Cloneable} is implemented allowing clone()
* to produce only an automatic shallow copy, which is fine
* for the statistical significance calculation it is intended for
* (none of the array
* data will be changed there).
