针对稀疏计数数据，提出基于泊松分布的嵌入方法p-SNE。

Across many scientific fields, measurements often represent the number of times an event occurs. For example, a document can be represented by word occurrence counts, neural activity by spike counts per time window, or online communication by daily email counts. These measurements yield high-dimensional count data that often approximate a Poisson distribution, frequently with low rates that produce substantial sparsity and complicate downstream analysis. A useful approach is to embed the data into a low-dimensional space that preserves meaningful structure, commonly termed dimensionality reduction. Yet existing dimensionality reduction methods, including both linear (e.g., PCA) and nonlinear approaches (e.g., t-SNE), often assume continuous Euclidean geometry, thereby misaligning with the discrete, sparse nature of low-rate count data. Here, we propose p-SNE (Poisson Stochastic Neighbor Embedding), a nonlinear neighbor embedding method designed around the Poisson structure of count data, using KL divergence between Poisson distributions to measure pairwise dissimilarity and Hellinger distance to optimize the embedding. We test p-SNE on synthetic Poisson data and demonstrate its ability to recover meaningful structure in real-world count datasets, including weekday patterns in email communication, research area clusters in OpenReview papers, and temporal drift and stimulus gradients in neural spike recordings.
