Supplementary material: - mdrur-spiral.gif: GIF animation of a toy example of a 2D spiral with 30% missing data (y1 or y2). The missing values of Y were initialized at zeros. The top-left plot shows the mapping f (red line) and the contours of the mapping F. The top-right plot shows xn and F(yn). The Y--recY plot links the reconstructed recY vectors with the true Y. Note how recY follow the trace of f, and in turn this helps f improve. Although many vertical and horizontal lines remain in the Y--recY plot, the recY are not wrong (see the bottom-right plot); the lines indicate there are multiple plausible reconstructions, and the particular one selected differs from the true one. All these animations may be seen with a web browser or with specialized GIF image viewers.
