The aim of this article is to describe a new perspective on functoriality of persistent homology and explain its intrinsic symmetry that is often overlooked. A data set for us is a finite collection of functions, called measurements, with a…
Persistent topological properties of an image serve as an additional descriptor providing an insight that might not be discovered by traditional neural networks. The existing research in this area focuses primarily on efficiently…
A recent theoretical breakthrough has brought a new tool, called \emph{localization landscape}, to predict the localization regions of vibration modes in complex or disordered systems. Here, we report on the first experiment which measures…
Topological methods are very rarely used in structural health monitoring (SHM), or indeed in structural dynamics generally, especially when considering the structure and topology of observed data. Topological methods can provide a way of…
Fixed-parameter algorithms have been successfully applied to solve numerous difficult problems within acceptable time bounds on large inputs. However, most fixed-parameter algorithms are inherently \emph{sequential} and, thus, make no use…
Through the use of examples, we explain one way in which applied topology has evolved since the birth of persistent homology in the early 2000s. The first applications of topology to data emphasized the global shape of a dataset, such as…
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…
Dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs) are a widely used framework for modeling systems whose probabilistic structure evolves over time. Standard inference methods focus on local conditional distributions and can miss larger-scale patterns in how…
Changes in the parameters of dynamical systems can cause the state of the system to shift between different qualitative regimes. These shifts, known as bifurcations, are critical to study as they can indicate when the system is about to…
Persistent homology is a widely used tool in Topological Data Analysis that encodes multiscale topological information as a multi-set of points in the plane called a persistence diagram. It is difficult to apply statistical theory directly…
The \v{C}ech and Rips constructions of persistent homology are stable with respect to perturbations of the input data. However, neither is robust to outliers, and both can be insensitive to topological structure of high-density regions of…
Signature tensors of paths are a versatile tool for data analysis and machine learning. Recently, they have been applied to persistent homology, by embedding barcodes into spaces of paths. Among the different path embeddings, the…
Persistent homology is constrained to purely topological persistence while multiscale graphs account only for geometric information. This work introduces persistent spectral theory to create a unified low-dimensional multiscale paradigm for…
Many dynamical systems can be described in terms of structured flows combining source/sink behavior, cyclic dynamics, and topology-constrained transport. These features arise across a wide range of domains, including physical, engineered,…
Topological Data Analysis (TDA), a relatively new field of data analysis, has proved very useful in a variety of applications. The main persistence tool from TDA is persistent homology in which data structure is examined at many scales.…
We define persistent homology groups over any set of spaces which have inclusions defined so that the corresponding directed graph between the spaces is acyclic, as well as along any subgraph of this directed graph. This method…
Topological data analysis is becoming increasingly relevant to support the analysis of unstructured data sets. A common assumption in data analysis is that the data set is a sample---not necessarily a uniform one---of some high-dimensional…
Persistent homology has been devised as a promising tool for the topological simplification of complex data. However, it is computationally intractable for large data sets. In this work, we introduce multiresolution persistent homology for…
We propose a practical computational framework for detecting structural changes in parameter-dependent topological data. In many applications, such as time-series data analysis, anomaly detection, and monitoring of systems under changing…
