Abstract:
A common strategy for exploring single-cell 'omics data is visualizing 2D nonlinear projections that aim to preserve high-dimensional data properties such as neighborhoods. Alternatively, mathematical theory and other computational tools can directly describe data geometry, while also showing that neighborhoods and other properties cannot be well-preserved in any 2D projection.
