    @brief Calculate Minkowski distance between objects using numpy.

    @param[in] object1 (array_like): The first array_like object.
    @param[in] object2 (array_like): The second array_like object.
    @param[in] degree (numeric): Degree of that is used for Minkowski distance.

    @return (double) Minkowski distance between two object.
