[Dimension Reduction Metric] Correlation for spectral distances #746

Closed mvinyard closed 1 year ago

mvinyard commented 1 year ago

What is the metric? Per suggestion by @scottgigante - use a correlation (i.e., Pearson's, Spearman's) to describe the quality of low-dimension distances as they relate to the original, high-dimension differences.

How should it be implemented?

Which task(s) could it be used for?

Strongly advocate for spearman here - Pearson is redundant with MSE
