\subsection whatisthetc What is a Tangential Complex?
Let us start with the description of the Tangential complex of a simple example, with \f$ k=1 \f$ and \f$ d=2 \f$.
-The input data is 4 points \f$ P \f$ located on a curve embedded in 2D.
+Only 4 points will be displayed (more are required for PCA) to simplify the figures. \f$ P \f$ located on a closed
+curve embedded in 2D.

-For each point \f$ p \f$, estimate its tangent subspace \f$ T_p \f$ (e.g. using PCA).
+For each point \f$ p \f$, estimate its tangent subspace \f$ T_p \f$ using PCA.

Let us add the Voronoi diagram of the points in orange. For each point \f$ p \f$, construct its star in the Delaunay triangulation of \f$ P \f$ restricted to \f$ T_p \f$.
