We develop a stability theory for minimal projective resolutions of $\mathbf{P}$-modules, where $\mathbf{P}$ is a finite metric poset. We use the G\"ulen-McCleary distance on $\mathbf{P}$-modules together with a new complex matching…

In order to use persistence diagrams as a true statistical tool, it would be very useful to have a good notion of mean and variance for a set of diagrams. In 2011, Mileyko and his collaborators made the first study of the properties of the…

Persistent homology offers a powerful tool for extracting hidden topological signals from brain networks. It captures the evolution of topological structures across multiple scales, known as filtrations, thereby revealing topological…

Persistent homology is a tool from Topological Data Analysis (TDA) used to summarize the topology underlying data. It can be conveniently represented through persistence diagrams. Observing a noisy signal, common strategies to infer its…

Persistence diagrams do not admit an inner product structure compatible with any Wasserstein metric. Hence, when applying kernel methods to persistence diagrams, the underlying feature map necessarily causes distortion. We prove persistence…

Topological data analysis offers a rich source of valuable information to study vision problems. Yet, so far we lack a theoretically sound connection to popular kernel-based learning techniques, such as kernel SVMs or kernel PCA. In this…

We study two-sample tests for relevant differences in persistence diagrams obtained from $L^p$-$m$-approximable data $(\mathcal{X}_t)_t$ and $(\mathcal{Y}_t)_t$. To this end, we compare variance estimates w.r.t.\ the Wasserstein metrics on…
