M2K1 IRIS vs UMAP

Same 22,282 asexual atlas cells, two layouts. IRIS uses the paper's supplied asexual pseudotime as the radial coordinate; UMAP is the original atlas embedding.

Use the buttons to switch color mode. Hover links both views.

IRIS

Time is spatial: later author pseudotime moves outward, while angle keeps neighborhood structure in view.

UMAP

The original atlas view keeps local neighborhoods, but pseudotime has to be read through color.
