We consider the problem of generating hypothesis from data based on ideas from logic. We introduce a notion of barcodes, which we call sequent barcodes, that mirrors the barcodes in persistent homology theory in topological data analysis.…

Prediction and discovery of new materials with desired properties are at the forefront of quantum science and technology research. A major bottleneck in this field is the computational resources and time complexity related to finding new…

Persistent homology was shown by Carlsson and Zomorodian to be homology of graded chain complexes with coefficients in the graded ring $\kk[t]$. As such, the behavior of persistence modules -- graded modules over $\kk[t]$ is an important…
