UMAP Dimension Reduction, Main Ideas!!!

UMAP Dimension Reduction, Main Ideas!!!

UMAP is one of the most popular dimension-reductions algorithms and this StatQuest walks you through UMAP, one step at a time, so that you will have a solid understanding of how UMAP works.

NOTE: This StatQuest is based on the original UMAP manuscript...
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1802.03426.pdf
...specifically Appendix C, From t-SNE to UMAP, which is also here...
https://jlmelville.github.io/uwot/umap-for-tsne.html
...and the UMAP user documentation...
https://umap-learn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/parameters.html
