Assuming you mean sum of absolute values of the differences (without which you cannot have a distance at all), you have described the L1 distance. The Hamming distance is the number of places in which the two vectors differ.

May 11, 2013 at 12:34 comment added Peter Flom You seem to have defined Hamming distance incorrectly. It is not the sum of one minus the sum of the other it is the sum of the differences.
May 11, 2013 at 12:10 comment added totpiko Well "correct" data you mean if I can then say this was correct and this wasn't. Nope I do not have, I am trying to find the best metrics on it.
May 11, 2013 at 12:01 comment added N. McA. Do you have the "correct" data to CV with?
May 11, 2013 at 11:52 comment added totpiko any suggestion which distance would be more useful?
May 11, 2013 at 11:51 comment added ziggystar How about edit distance?
