## Abstract (arXiv)

We present an overview of taxicab correspondence analysis, a robust variant of correspondence analysis, for visualization of extremely sparse ontingency tables. In particular we visualize an extremely sparse textual data set of size 590 by 8265 concerning fragments of 8 sacred books recently introduced by Sah and Fokou'e (2019) and studied quite in detail by (12 + 1) dimension reduction methods (t-SNE, UMAP, PHATE,...) by Ma, Sun and Zou (2022).
