DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/BilTop/40/">
 UMAP for the working mathematician</a>\nby Rick Jardine (Western Universit
 y) as part of Bilkent Topology Seminar\n\nLecture held in SB-Z11.\n\nAbstr
 act\nThe Healy-McInnes UMAP algorithm is a highly successful clustering to
 ol that involves interesting ideas from mathematics and data science:\n\n1
 ) Spivak's theory of extended pseudo metric spaces (ep-metric spaces)\n2) 
 TDA constructions in ep-metric spaces\n3) weighted graphs\n4) classical di
 mension reduction\n5) graph optimization: fuzzy sets\, cross entropy\n\nI 
 will explain the algorithm from a mathematical point of view.\n
