  "term": "Multidimensional scaling",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A statistical technique that visualizes the similarity or dissimilarity between objects in a low-dimensional space. It takes a matrix of distances or dissimilarities and produces a spatial representation where similar objects are close together and dissimilar objects are far apart. This method is often applied in cheminformatics to analyze molecular similarity.",
