UMAP
UMAP, or Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection, is a powerful dimensionality reduction technique widely used in data science and machine learning. It excels at visualizing high-dimensional datasets by projecting them into lower-dimensional spaces, typically 2D or 3D, while preserving the underlying structure of the data. UMAP operates by first learning the manifold structure of the data in high dimensions and then finding a low-dimensional representation. This method is particularly effective for clustering and visualizing complex data patterns, making it a popular choice for tasks such as exploratory data analysis and outlier detection.
