DREiMac: Dimensionality Reduction with Eilenberg-MacLane Coordinates

DREiMac is a library for topological data coordinatization, visualization, and dimensionality reduction. Currently, DREiMac is able to find topology-preserving representations of point clouds taking values in the circle, in higher dimensional tori, in the real and complex projective space, and in lens spaces.

In a few words, DREiMac takes as input a point cloud together with a topological feature of the point cloud (in the form of a persistent cohomology class), and returns a map from the point cloud to a well-understood topological space (a circle, a product of circles, a projective space, or a lens space), which preserves the given topological feature in a precise sense. For more information, please check the theory and examples in the documentation.

Basic usage

Here is a simple example; please check the Jupyter notebooks in the notebooks directory for further examples.

# basic imports
from dreimac import CircularCoords
from persim import plot_diagrams
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

# prepare plot with 4 subplots
f, (a0, a1, a2, a3) = plt.subplots(1, 4, width_ratios=[1, 1, 1, 0.2], figsize=(14,3))

# 200 samples from a noisy circle
n_samples = 200
np.random.seed(0)
Z = np.random.random((n_samples, 2)) - 0.5
X = Z / np.linalg.norm(Z, axis=1).reshape((n_samples, 1)) + (np.random.random((n_samples, 2)) - 0.5) * 0.2

# plot point cloud
a0.scatter(X[:,0], X[:,1], s=10)
a0.set_title("Input point cloud") ; a0.axis("off") ; a0.set_aspect("equal")

# plot the persistence diagram, showing a single prominent class
cc = CircularCoords(X, n_landmarks=200)
plot_diagrams(cc._dgms, title="Persistence diagram", ax=a1)

# plot the data colored by the circle-valued map constructed by DREiMac
circular_coordinates = cc.get_coordinates()
a2.scatter(X[:,0], X[:,1], c=circular_coordinates, s=10, cmap="viridis")
a2.set_title("Input colored by circular coordinate") ; a2.axis("off") ; a2.set_aspect("equal")

# plot colorbar
img = a3.imshow([[0,1]], cmap="viridis"); a3.set_visible(False)
cb = plt.colorbar(mappable=img,ticks=[0,0.5,1]) ; _ = cb.ax.set_yticklabels(["0","$\pi$","2$\pi$"])
