\title{Projection Pursuit}

\description{Projection pursuit (PP) with 17 methods and grand tour with 3 methods. Being that projection pursuit searches for low-dimensional linear projections in high-dimensional data structures, while grand tour is a technique used to explore multivariate statistical data through animation.}
