Modern representation learning increasingly relies on unsupervised and self-supervised methods trained on large-scale unlabeled data. While these approaches achieve impressive generalization across tasks and domains, evaluating embedding…
Metrics of interest in topological data analysis (TDA) are often explicitly or implicitly in the form of an interleaving distance $d_{\mathrm{I}}$ between poset maps (i.e. order-preserving maps), e.g. the Gromov-Hausdorff distance between…

We develop some aspects of the homological algebra of persistence modules, in both the one-parameter and multi-parameter settings, considered as either sheaves or graded modules. The two theories are different. We consider the graded module…
