For a matrix $X\in\mathbb{R}^{d\times n}$, what condition can I impose on $X$ to make the collection of its columns generic in the sense that they look like the result of uniformly sampling a convex region in $\mathbb{R}^d$? Ideas or relevant papers are welcome and appreciated. Thanks.

$\begingroup$ So, the question is on uniformly sampling a convex region, right? $\endgroup$– Rodrigo de AzevedoOct 26, 2019 at 5:55

$\begingroup$ No, the question is on "what conditions I can impose on X" to make its columns look like uniform point cloud on a convex region. $\endgroup$– Min WuOct 26, 2019 at 5:58

1$\begingroup$ Why make it look like the original if you can get the original? $\endgroup$– Rodrigo de AzevedoOct 26, 2019 at 6:28

$\begingroup$ You want something like a likelihood measure, that given $X$ will tell you how "likely" it is to come from a uniform sampling on a convex? As it is, it is unclear what you are asking. Any distribution of points may come from such a sampling, although possibly with a low likelihood. $\endgroup$– Federico PoloniOct 26, 2019 at 8:23

$\begingroup$ Sorry for the confusions. I will restate the problem again. $\endgroup$– Min WuOct 26, 2019 at 16:46
