The Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) algorithm has two primary hyperparameters that significantly influence the embedding: n_neighbors and min_dist. In this analysis, we explore the effect of n_neighbors, which controls the balance between local and global structure preservation. A lower value emphasizes fine-grained local relationships, while a higher value prioritizes global structure, smoothing the representation. We present UMAP projections of pixel sequences for three different n_neighbors values while keeping min_dist constant at 0.5 (the default value). The results are shown in SI6-1
