Sorry to ask via issue tracker, tried to find the answer in the referred arxived article and did not know of any other better channel.
I am trying to figure out how the Document-Based Scatterplot works.
I get that it uses Tf-Idf on unigrams of the text and takes the 2 first unigrams of the vector (the most different terms?) as axis. But what function is applied to each document to find its x-y position? Its "nearess" to each term?
Besides, I don't understand why we need to provide Category in this case. I understood it uses category to colorize the points, but anything else? Because if it's just that, it seems a hard constraint to Document-Based Scatterplot for something one may not need. But I guess I am missing something.
