# t-SNE

`linfa-tsne` provides a pure Rust implementation of exact and Barnes-Hut t-SNE.

## The Big Picture

`linfa-tsne` is a crate in the [`linfa`](https://crates.io/crates/linfa) ecosystem, an effort to create a toolkit for classical Machine Learning implemented in pure Rust, akin to Python's `scikit-learn`.

## Current state

`linfa-tsne` currently provides an implementation of the following methods: 

- exact solution t-SNE
- Barnes-Hut t-SNE

It wraps the [bhtsne](https://github.com/frjnn/bhtsne) crate, all kudos to them.

## Examples

There is an usage example in the `examples/` directory. To run it, do:

```bash
$ cargo run --example tsne
```

You have to install the `gnuplot` library for plotting. Also take a look at the [README](https://github.com/rust-ml/linfa#blaslapack-backend) to see what BLAS/LAPACK backends are possible.
