Like in a non-dimensional number?. For example the Reynolds number in fluid flow.
- zardo 11y agoNo, the meaning dimension there is different. In the Reynolds number it's a ratio of measures where the units cancel. Here we're talking about mapping data into a high dimensional space, then trying to project that down to the minimum dimension space that can preserve the relevant information. In the example we don't have any reason to even think all our dimensions are orthogonal, we're assigning a new dimension for each word, but we know there is a lot of overlap in word meaning.
