Separating house prices with t-SNE
t-SNE is a non-linear dimensionality reduction technique. It embeds high-dimensional data into a lower-dimensional space. As it does so, it strives to keep points next to their original neighbors. You will create a t-SNE plot that you can compare with the PCA plot in the last exercise. PCA preserves the global structure of the data, but not the local structure. t-SNE preserves the local structure by keeping neighbors in the higher-dimensional space close to each other in the lower-dimensional space. You will see this in the plots.
You will apply t-SNE to reduce the house_sales_df. The target variable of house_sales_df is price. The tidyverse and Rtsne packages have been loaded for you.
