In this paper, we extend the stochastic neighbor embedding (SNE) algorithm to data on general Riemannian manifolds. We replace standard Gaussian assumptions with Riemannian diffusion counterparts and propose an efficient approximation that only requires access to calculations of Riemannian distances and volumes. We demonstrate that the approach also allows for mapping data from one manifold to another, e.g. from a high-dimensional sphere to a low-dimensional one.Attribution 4.0 International License!10.2312/mlvis.202411235 pages
