% this is my data

6.27 0.93 -2.78];
beta = 0.01;
u1 = [1,1,1];
u2 = [-1,-1,-1];
u = [u1; u2];
% method 1
D1 = vpa(1 - exp(sym(-beta*pdist2(X,u).^2)));
[~, I1] = sort(D1, 2);
I1
% method 2
D2 = 1 - exp(sym(-beta*pdist2(X,u).^2));
[~, I2] = sort(D2, 2);
I2
I1 and I2 are different. The only difference is to use "vpa" or not.
How to solve this problem?
Thank you very much!

Why are you using symbolics? Double should be sufficient (these are not large numbers).
D1 = (1 - exp(-beta*pdist2(X,u).^2));
[~, I1] = sort(D1, 2);
