Relational Generative Topographic Map

The generative topographic mapping (GTM) has been proposed as a statistical model to represent high dimensional data by means of a sparse lattice of points in latent space, such that visualization, compression, and data inspection become possible. Original GTM is restricted to Euclidean data points in a vector space. Often, data are not explicitly embedded in a Euclidean vector space, rather pa...
