It uses a neural network to learn a mapping directly from data to embedding space using a UMAP loss. Pushing new data through is only slightly more expensive than PCA, so being part of an inference pipeline is fine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2009.12981/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
