+This repository contains an implementation of the hashing algorithm for
+approximate furthest neighbor search detailed in the paper
+
+"Approximate Furthest Neighbor in High Dimensions"
+by Rasmus Pagh, Francesco Silverstri, Johan Siversten, and Matthew Skala
+presented at SISAP 2015.
+
+There is another implementation available here:
+https://github.com/johanvts/FN-Implementations
+
+but I wanted to re-implement this to ensure that I understood it correctly, and
+so that I could get a better comparison.
+
+This code is built using mlpack and Armadillo, so when you configure with CMake
+you may have to specify the installation directory of mlpack and Armadillo, if
+they are not already installed on the system.
