SQDMDS

Sequential Quadratic Distance MDS (SQDMDS) is a method for multidimensional scaling that uses a sequential quadratic programming approach.

How It Works

Sequential Quadratic Distance MDS (SQDMDS) formulates the MDS stress-minimization problem as a sequence of quadratic programming problems, offering efficient convergence.

Why or When to Use

Use SQDMDS when classical MDS is too slow or you want an alternative mathematical optimization approach to minimize MDS stress more effectively.

Example

How-to (Code)

import * as druid from "@saehrimnir/druidjs";

const data = [
  /* ... multi-dimensional data ... */
];

// 1. Initialize the algorithm
const sqdmds = new druid.SQDMDS(data);

// 2. Compute the projection
const projection = sqdmds.transform();
