Geometric Stability: The Missing Axis of Representations

arXiv:2601. 09173v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Representational similarity analysis and related methods compare the internal geometries of neural networks, but they measure only alignment between spaces, leaving a blind spot -- whether a representation's structure is reliably recoverable, not merely similar.

DMT-Dens: Density-preserving manifold visualization for biological data

DMT‑Dens is a parametric manifold‑visualization technique that uses a latent‑token Transformer encoder to produce two‑dimensional embeddings of high‑dimensional biological data. It preserves sampling density by aligning rank‑based manifold structures and optimizing a Pearson‑correlation loss on k‑nearest‑neighbor log‑radius estimates. Benchmark tests show that DMT‑Dens maintains density fidelity while achieving competitive label separability on biological datasets.

The Rashomon Effect for Visualizing High-Dimensional Data

The paper introduces the Rashomon set for dimension reduction, a collection of equally good embeddings that preserve high‑dimensional structure. It proposes PCA‑informed alignment to make axes interpretable, concept‑alignment regularization to incorporate external knowledge, and a method to extract trustworthy nearest‑neighbor relationships across the Rashomon set for refined embeddings. These techniques aim to produce interpretable, robust, and goal‑aligned visualizations by leveraging multiple valid embeddings instead of a single one.
