Abstract

Topological data analysis refers to approaches for systematically and reliably computing abstract ``shapes'' of complex data sets. There are various applications of topological data analysis in life and data sciences, with growing interest among physicists. We present a concise yet (we hope) comprehensive review of applications of topological data analysis to physics and machine learning problems in physics including the detection of phase transitions. We finish with a preview of anticipated directions for future research.
