3D Latent Space Analysis

Exploring the latent feature representations of datasets

One of the analysis techniques I used to search for explainable outliers was dimensionality reduction using algorithms such as UMAP [1]. A basic workflow is

where algorithmic choices are made for each step in the workflow. I partially simplified the algorithm by creating a jupyter notebook that combines the last three items into a single interface. Plotly made a nice interactive figure, which is shown below.
