2-D Embedding of Large and High-dimensional Data with Minimal Memory and Computational Time Requirements
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the advent of big data era, interactive visualization of large data sets consisting of M*10^5+ high-dimensional feature vectors of length N (N ~ 10^3+), is an indispensable tool for data exploratory analysis. The state-of-the-art data embedding (DE) methods of N-D data into 2-D (3-D) visually perceptible space (e.g., based on t-SNE concept) are too demanding computationally to be efficiently employed for interactive data analytics of large and high-dimensional datasets. Herein we present a simple method, ivhd (interactive visualization of high-dimensional data tool), which radically outperforms the modern data-embedding algorithms in both computational and memory loads, while retaining high quality of N-D data embedding in 2-D (3-D). We show that DE problem is equivalent to the nearest neighbor nn-graph visualization, where only indices of a few nearest neighbors of each data sample has to be known, and binary distance between data samples -- 0 to the nearest and 1 to the other samples -- is defined. These improvements reduce the time-complexity and memory load from O(M log M) to O(M), and ensure minimal O(M) proportionality coefficient as well. We demonstrate high efficiency, quality and robustness of ivhd on popular benchmark datasets such as MNIST, 20NG, NORB and RCV1.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
