+method for dimensionality reduction and visualization of high dimensional
+datasets.  A popular implementation of t-SNE uses the Barnes-Hut algorithm to
+approximate the gradient at each iteration of gradient descent.  This
+implementation differs in these ways:
+
+@itemize
+@item Instead of approximating the N-body simulation using Barnes-Hut, we
+  interpolate onto an equispaced grid and use FFT to perform the convolution.
+@item Instead of computing nearest neighbors using vantage-point trees, we
+  approximate nearest neighbors using the Annoy library.  The neighbor lookups
+  are multithreaded to take advantage of machines with multiple cores.
