Umap embedding
An S4 Class implementing the UMAP algorithm
Uniform Manifold Approximation is a gradient descend based algorithm that gives results similar to t-SNE, but scales better with the number of points.
fun
A function that does the embedding and returns a dimRedResult object.
stdpars
The standard parameters for the function.
Dimensionality reduction methods are S4 Classes that either be used
directly, in which case they have to be initialized and a full
list with parameters has to be handed to the @fun()
slot, or the method name be passed to the embed function and
parameters can be given to the ...
, in which case
missing parameters will be replaced by the ones in the
@stdpars
.
UMAP can take the follwing parameters:
The number of embedding dimensions.
The number of neighbors to be used.
The distance metric to use.
"naive"
for an R implementation, "python"
for the reference implementation.
Other method parameters can also be passed, see
umap.defaults
for details. The ones above have been
standardized for the use with dimRed
and will get automatically
translated for umap
.
The dimRed package wraps the umap
packages which provides
an implementation in pure R and also a wrapper around the original python
package umap-learn
(https://github.com/lmcinnes/umap/)
The "naive"
implementation is a pure R implementation and considered
experimental at the point of writing this, it is also much slower than the
python implementation.
The "python"
implementation is the reference implementation used by
McInees et. al. (2018). It requires the reticulate
package for the interaction with python and the python package
umap-learn
installed (use pip install umap-learn
).

## Not run: dat <- loadDataSet("3D S Curve", n = 300) ## use the S4 Class directly: umap <- UMAP() emb <- umap@fun(dat, umap@stdpars) ## or simpler, use embed(): emb2 <- embed(dat, "UMAP", .mute = NULL, knn = 10) plot(emb2, type = "2vars") ## End(Not run)
