Abstract
Dimensionality Reduction Techniques (DRs) are used for projecting high-dimensional data onto a two-dimensional plane. One subclass of DRs are such techniques that utilize landmarks. Landmarks are a subset of the original data space that are projected by a slow and more precise technique. The other data points are then placed in relation to these landmarks with respect to their distance in the high-dimensional space. We propose a technique to refine the placement of the landmarks by a human user. We test two different techniques for unprojecting the movement of the low-dimensional landmarks into the high-dimensional data space. We showcase that such a movement can increase certain quality metrics while decreasing others. Therefore, users may use our technique to challenge their understanding of the high-dimensional data space.
