Manifold Approximation

Manifold approximation aims to represent high-dimensional data using lower-dimensional structures, revealing underlying patterns and simplifying analysis. Current research focuses on improving algorithms like UMAP and t-SNE, incorporating geometric information (e.g., using spherical representations or elastic metrics), and developing methods for interpretability and handling singularities in the data. These advancements are crucial for various applications, including outlier detection in large datasets, improved machine learning model performance, and enhanced understanding of complex systems like biological sequences and physical processes.
