Another projection that maps each hemisphere to a square is the quincuncial map .

The front carbon atom is called proximal , while the back atom is called distal . This type of representation is useful for assessing the torsional angle between bonds. A Sawhorse representation , on the other hand, views a carbon carbon bond from an oblique angle. This type of representation makes it easy to visualize the molecule as a whole in 3 D. Other methods for depicting molecules are the Fischer projection , the Haworth projection and the Natta projection .

In all of these formulas, math lambda math is the longitude from the central meridian and math phi math is the latitude. Three years later, Ernst Hermann Heinrich Hammer suggested the use of the Lambert azimuthal equal area projection in the same manner as Aitoff, producing the Hammer projection . While Hammer was careful to cite Aitoff, there has been some confusion since, wherein Aitoff has been attributed to Hammer s projection. ref Flattening the Earth Two Thousand Years of Map Projections , John P.

  1. Projection pursuit

    Projection pursuit is a type of statistical technique which involves finding the most interesting possible projections in multidimensional data. Often, projections which deviate more from a Normal distribution are considered to be more interesting. As each projection is found, the data are reduced by removing the component along that projection, and the process is repeated to find new projections this is the pursuit aspect that motivated the technique known as matching pursuit . The projection pursuit concept was developed by Jerome H. Friedman and John Tukey in 1974.
