The knowledge that data lies close to a particular submanifold of the ambient Euclidean space may be useful in a number of ways. For instance, one may want to automatically mark any point far away from the submanifold as an outlier or to…

Persistent homology, a powerful mathematical tool for data analysis, summarizes the shape of data through tracking topological features across changes in different scales. Classical algorithms for persistent homology are often constrained…

Effective information analysis generally boils down to properly identifying the structure or geometry of the data, which is often represented by a graph. In some applications, this structure may be partly determined by design constraints or…
