The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma is a fundamental result in dimensionality reduction, ensuring that any finite set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ can be embedded into a lower-dimensional space $\mathbb{R}^k$ while approximately preserving…

This is a tutorial and survey paper on the Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma and linear and nonlinear random projections. We start with linear random projection and then justify its correctness by JL lemma and its proof. Then, sparse random…

Random projections are random linear maps, sampled from appropriate distributions, that approx- imately preserve certain geometrical invariants so that the approximation improves as the dimension of the space grows. The well-known…

Johnson-Lindenstrauss embeddings are widely used to reduce the dimension and thus the processing time of data. To reduce the total complexity, also fast algorithms for applying these embeddings are necessary. To date, such fast algorithms…

For any integers $d, n \geq 2$ and $1/({\min\{n,d\}})^{0.4999} < \varepsilon<1$, we show the existence of a set of $n$ vectors $X\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ such that any embedding $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m$ satisfying $$ \forall x,y\in X,\…

We provide a simple proof of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma for sub-Gaussian variables. We extend the analysis to identify how sparse projections can be, and what the cost of sparsity is on the target dimension.The Johnson-Lindenstrauss…
