Does "curse of dimensionality" really exist in real data?
I understand what is "curse of dimensionality", and I have done some high dimensional optimization problems and know the challenge of the exponential possibilities. … (In most books "curse of dimensionality" says dimension > 10 could be problematic. In their demos they use uniform distribution in all dimensions, where entropy is really high. …

Curse of dimensionality in Time series with K-means
I have been looking at the following notebook: time series clustering
where the writer says that the dataset is affected by the "Curse of Dimensionality", so applying TimeSeriesKMeans offered by tslearn … The dataset in the article has only 2 features (timestamp, value) and many data, so in my opinion, there is no "Curse of dimensionality", hence doing the PCA on all the "value" columns is useless. …
