Manifold learning visualizer.
Explore 3D shapes and illustrative 2D mappings. Use rotation and color to follow how a surface changes under projection.

Concept demonstration: the original demo uses handcrafted geometric projections. The Isomap, MDS, spectral, and t-SNE labels are illustrative; these are not numerical implementations of those algorithms.
Quick start
Get hands-on.
Choose a dataset and mapping, adjust the sample count and noise, and rotate the original 3D view to explore the geometry.
What to look for
- Intrinsic versus extrinsic dimensionality.
- The intuition behind neighborhoods, geodesic distances, and embeddings.
- Why nonlinear structure can be lost in a simple projection.
