The paper introduces a new dimensionality reduction technique that enhances nearest‑neighbour relationships to estimate high‑information projections. It constructs a matrix encoding local covariance via nearest‑neighbour pairs and shows that, under standard regularity conditions, this matrix consistently estimates the Density Information Matrix (DIM), a non‑parametric analogue of the Fisher Information Matrix. The authors also demonstrate the method’s practical usefulness for clustering and outlier detection.
