In order to meet the requirements of practical applications, a model of deforming manifold in the embedded space is proposed. The deforming vector and deforming field are presented to precisely describe the deforming process, which have clear physical meanings. The proposed model is a modification of the general differential dynamic model, with constraints of spatial and temporal continuity on the deforming field. The deformation integral and derivative are presented as compact expressions of manifold deforming process. Moreover, a specific autonomous deforming field with flattening effect is defined, which provides a novel geometric viewpoint on data dimension reduction. The effectiveness of this autonomous deforming field is proved by numerical computation simulations, which indicate the promising potential of the proposed model in practical dimension reduction tasks.
