The computation of Vietoris-Rips persistence barcodes is both execution-intensive and memory-intensive. In this paper, we study its computational structure and identify several unique mathematical properties and algorithmic opportunities…
The Vietoris-Rips filtration is a versatile tool in topological data analysis. It is a sequence of simplicial complexes built on a metric space to add topological structure to an otherwise disconnected set of points. It is widely used…
The efficiency of extracting topological information from point data depends largely on the complex that is built on top of the data points. From a computational viewpoint, the most favored complexes for this purpose have so far been…
We present an algorithm for the computation of Vietoris-Rips persistence barcodes and describe its implementation in the software Ripser. The method relies on implicit representations of the coboundary operator and the filtration order of…
Extracting informative features from images has been of capital importance in computer vision. In this paper, we propose a way to extract such features from images by a method based on algebraic topology. To that end, we construct a…
The long computational time and large memory requirements for computing Vietoris Rips persistent homology from point clouds remains a significant deterrent to its application to big data. This paper aims to reduce the memory footprint of…
The shadow of an abstract simplicial complex $K$ with vertices in $\mathbb{R}^N$ is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^N$ defined as the union of the convex hulls of simplices of $K$. The Vietoris--Rips complex of a metric space $(S,d)$ at scale…
We study a family of invariants of compact metric spaces that combines the Curvature Sets defined by Gromov in the 1980s with Vietoris-Rips Persistent Homology. For given integers $k\geq 0$ and $n\geq 1$ we consider the dimension $k$…
Clustering aims to form groups of similar data points in an unsupervised regime. Yet, clustering complex datasets containing critically intertwined shapes poses significant challenges. The prevailing clustering algorithms widely depend on…
Discrete Forman-Ricci curvature (FRC) is an efficient tool that characterizes essential geometrical features and associated transitions of real-world networks, extending seamlessly to higher-dimensional computations in simplicial complexes.…
This paper applies the randomized incremental construction (RIC) framework to computing the Hausdorff Voronoi diagram of a family of k clusters of points in the plane. The total number of points is n. The diagram is a generalization of…
Rips complexes are important structures for analyzing topological features of metric spaces. Unfortunately, generating these complexes is expensive because of a combinatorial explosion in the complex size. For $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$,…
A challenge in computational topology is to deal with large filtered geometric complexes built from point cloud data such as Vietoris-Rips filtrations. This has led to the development of schemes for parallel computation and compression…
In the Hausdorff Voronoi diagram of a set of clusters of points in the plane, the distance between a point t and a cluster P is the maximum Euclidean distance between t and a point in P. This diagram has direct applications in VLSI design.…
We introduce giotto-ph, a high-performance, open-source software package for the computation of Vietoris-Rips barcodes. giotto-ph is based on Morozov and Nigmetov's lockfree (multicore) implementation of Ulrich Bauer's Ripser package. It…
In compressed sensing, the "restricted isometry property" (RIP) is a sufficient condition for the efficient reconstruction of a nearly k-sparse vector x in C^d from m linear measurements Phi x. It is desirable for m to be small, and for Phi…
Persistent homology has emerged as a novel tool for data analysis in the past two decades. However, there are still very few shapes or even manifolds whose persistent homology barcodes (say of the Vietoris-Rips complex) are fully known.…
We study combinatorial connectivity for two models of random geometric complexes. These two models - \v{C}ech and Vietoris-Rips complexes - are built on a homogeneous Poisson point process of intensity $n$ on a $d$-dimensional torus using…
Motivated by computational aspects of persistent homology for Vietoris-Rips filtrations, we generalize a result of Eliyahu Rips on the contractibility of Vietoris-Rips complexes of geodesic spaces for a suitable parameter depending on the…
Multi-parameter persistent homology naturally arises in applications of persistent topology to data that come with extra information depending on additional parameters, like for example time series data. We introduce the concept of a…
