Despite their performance and widespread use, little is known about the theory of Random Forests. A major unanswered question is whether, or when, the Random Forest algorithm is consistent. The literature explores various variants of the…
We introduce a new feature map for barcodes that arise in persistent homology computation. The main idea is to first realize each barcode as a path in a convenient vector space, and to then compute its path signature which takes values in…
The natural pseudo-distance of spaces endowed with filtering functions is precious for shape classification and retrieval; its optimal estimate coming from persistence diagrams is the bottleneck distance, which unfortunately suffers from…
Topological data analysis and its main method, persistent homology, provide a toolkit for computing topological information of high-dimensional and noisy data sets. Kernels for one-parameter persistent homology have been established to…
In this work we use the persistent homology method, a technique in topological data analysis (TDA), to extract essential topological features from the data space and combine them with deep learning features for classification tasks. In TDA,…

This paper presents a mathematically rigorous framework for brain-inspired representation learning founded on the interplay between persistent topological structures and cohomological flows. Neural computation is reformulated as the…
The training of neural networks is usually monitored with a validation (holdout) set to estimate the generalization of the model. This is done instead of measuring intrinsic properties of the model to determine whether it is learning…
Persistent homology studies the birth and death of cycles in a parameterized family of spaces. In this paper, we study the birth and death of cycles in a multifiltration of a chain complex with the goal of producing a persistence diagram…

Persistent homology (PH) is a rigorous mathematical theory that provides a robust descriptor of data in the form of persistence diagrams (PDs) which are 2D multisets of points. Their variable size makes them, however, difficult to combine…
We introduce persistence matching diagrams induced by set mappings of metric spaces, based on 0-persistent homology of Vietoris-Rips filtrations. Also, we present a geometric definition of the persistence matching diagram that is more…
