Using ideas of the Dowker duality we prove that the Rips complex at scale $r$ is homotopy equivalent to the nerve of a cover consisting of sets of prescribed diameter. We then develop a functorial version of the Nerve theorem coupled with…

We study how the topology of a data set $M = M_a \cup M_b \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, representing two classes $a$ and $b$ in a binary classification problem, changes as it passes through the layers of a well-trained neural network, i.e., with…

We use methods from computational algebraic topology to study functional brain networks, in which nodes represent brain regions and weighted edges encode the similarity of fMRI time series from each region. With these tools, which allow one…

Various topological techniques and tools have been applied to neural networks in terms of network complexity, explainability, and performance. One fundamental assumption of this line of research is the existence of a global (Euclidean)…

Topological deep learning is a rapidly growing field that pertains to the development of deep learning models for data supported on topological domains such as simplicial complexes, cell complexes, and hypergraphs, which generalize many…

This paper introduces topological data analysis. Starting from notions of a metric space and some elementary graph theory, we take example sets of data and demonstrate some of their topological properties. We discuss simplicial complexes…

Neural networks can be thought of as applying a transformation to an input dataset. The way in which they change the topology of such a dataset often holds practical significance for many tasks, particularly those demanding non-homeomorphic…

Topological data analysis combines machine learning with methods from algebraic topology. Persistent homology, a method to characterize topological features occurring in data at multiple scales is of particular interest. A major obstacle to…

The application of network techniques to the analysis of neural data has greatly improved our ability to quantify and describe these rich interacting systems. Among many important contributions, networks have proven useful in identifying…

Graphs are a basic tool for the representation of modern data. The richness of the topological information contained in a graph goes far beyond its mere interpretation as a one-dimensional simplicial complex. We show how topological…

Classical unsupervised learning methods like clustering and linear dimensionality reduction parametrize large-scale geometry when it is discrete or linear, while more modern methods from manifold learning find low dimensional representation…

We study the probabilistic convergence between the mapper graph and the Reeb graph of a topological space $\mathbb{X}$ equipped with a continuous function $f: \mathbb{X} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. We first give a categorification of the…

We present a unified framework to systematically embed complex knotted and linked structures, beyond the torus family, into diverse topological phases, including Hopf insulators, classical spin liquids, topological semimetals, and…

A standard problem in applied topology is how to discover topological invariants of data from a noisy point cloud that approximates it. We consider the case where a sample is drawn from a properly embedded C1-submanifold without boundary in…

We prove an extension to the simplicial Nerve Lemma which establishes isomorphism of persistent homology groups, in the case where the covering spaces are filtered. While persistent homology is now widely used in topological data analysis,…

Topological data analysis uses tools from topology -- the mathematical area that studies shapes -- to create representations of data. In particular, in persistent homology, one studies one-parameter families of spaces associated with data,…

This paper is a cursory study on how topological features are preserved within the internal representations of neural network layers. Using techniques from topological data analysis, namely persistent homology, the topological features of a…

Topological deep learning (TDL) is a rapidly growing field that seeks to leverage topological structure in data and facilitate learning from data supported on topological objects, ranging from molecules to 3D shapes. Most TDL architectures…

We have initiated the study of topology of the space of coverings on grid domains. The space has the following constraint: while all the covering agents can move freely (we allow overlapping) on the domain, their union must cover the whole…

Manifold reconstruction has been extensively studied for the last decade or so, especially in two and three dimensions. Recently, significant improvements were made in higher dimensions, leading to new methods to reconstruct large classes…
