In each case, the space can either be a Euclidean space or it can be equipped with topological, geometric and algebraic structures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The paper goes on to then \u201creview a large and disparate body of literature of non-Euclidean generalizations of algorithms classically defined for data residing in Euclidean spaces.\u201d The algorithms presented assume that certain topological, algebraic, or geometric structures of the data \/ problem are known. However, it does not go into discussion on methods where such structures are not known. For example, methods that fall into the category of topological data analysis, metric learning, or group learning are not covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"453\" src=\"https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/481219833_657432926800502_3088526591238091847_n-1030x453.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1038\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/481219833_657432926800502_3088526591238091847_n-1030x453.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/481219833_657432926800502_3088526591238091847_n-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/481219833_657432926800502_3088526591238091847_n-768x338.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/481219833_657432926800502_3088526591238091847_n-705x310.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/481219833_657432926800502_3088526591238091847_n.jpg 1434w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"932\" height=\"876\" src=\"https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/482207050_657433080133820_1248499697510322983_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1039\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/482207050_657433080133820_1248499697510322983_n.jpg 932w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/482207050_657433080133820_1248499697510322983_n-300x282.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/482207050_657433080133820_1248499697510322983_n-768x722.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccds.ai\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/482207050_657433080133820_1248499697510322983_n-705x663.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 932px) 100vw, 932px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The two images below are from the article titled \u2013 Beyond Euclid: An Illustrated Guide to Modern Machine Learning with Geometric, Topological, and Algebraic Structure, by Sanborn et al.
