The complexity of many biological, social and technological systems stems from the richness of the interactions among their units. Over the past decades, a great variety of complex systems has been successfully described as networks whose…
The irreducible complexity of natural phenomena has led Graph Neural Networks to be employed as a standard model to perform representation learning tasks on graph-structured data. While their capacity to capture local and global patterns is…
Graphs serve as powerful tools for modeling pairwise interactions in diverse fields such as biology, material science, and social networks. However, they inherently overlook interactions involving more than two entities. Simplicial…
Living systems exhibit complex yet organized behavior on multiple spatiotemporal scales. To investigate the nature of multiscale coordination in living systems, one needs a meaningful and systematic way to quantify the complex dynamics, a…
Topology identification and inference of processes evolving over graphs arise in timely applications involving brain, transportation, financial, power, as well as social and information networks. This chapter provides an overview of graph…
Multilayer networks have permeated all the sciences as a powerful mathematical abstraction for interdependent heterogenous complex systems such as multimodal brain connectomes, transportation, ecological systems, and scientific…
Complex networks are universal, arising in fields as disparate as sociology, physics, and biology. In the past decade, extensive research into the properties and behaviors of complex systems has uncovered surprising commonalities among the…
In many scenarios, especially biomedical applications, the correct delineation of complex fine-scaled structures such as neurons, tissues, and vessels is critical for downstream analysis. Despite the strong predictive power of deep learning…
Persistent homology, a technique from computational topology, has recently shown strong empirical performance in the context of graph classification. Being able to capture long range graph properties via higher-order topological features,…
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…
Neural networks encode inputs as high-dimensional vectors, known as representations, that capture how models process data by encoding task-relevant structure and semantics. Representation alignment refers to the degree to which different…
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…
Topological Machine Learning (TML) is an emerging field that leverages techniques from algebraic topology to analyze complex data structures in ways that traditional machine learning methods may not capture. This tutorial provides a…
In artificial-intelligence-aided signal processing, existing deep learning models often exhibit a black-box structure, and their validity and comprehensibility remain elusive. The integration of topological methods, despite its relatively…
Computational topology provides a tool, persistent homology, to extract quantitative descriptors from structured objects (images, graphs, point clouds, etc). These descriptors can then be involved in optimization problems, typically as a…
All intelligence is collective intelligence, in the sense that it is made of parts which must align with respect to system-level goals. Understanding the dynamics which facilitate or limit navigation of problem spaces by aligned parts thus…
Emergent patterns in complex systems are related to many intriguing phenomena in modern science and philosophy. Several conceptions such as weak, strong and robust emergence have been proposed to emphasize different epistemological and…
Persistent homology is a technique recently developed in algebraic and computational topology well-suited to analysing structure in complex, high-dimensional data. In this paper, we exposit the theory of persistent homology from first…
Topological Neural Networks (TNNs) incorporate higher-order relational information beyond pairwise interactions, enabling richer representations than Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Concurrently, topological descriptors based on persistent…
Graph embeddings play a critical role in graph representation learning, allowing machine learning models to explore and interpret graph-structured data. However, existing methods often rely on opaque, high-dimensional embeddings, limiting…
