We are honored to be part of the Online workshop “Beyond TDA – Persistent topology and its applications in data sciences”.

Our Mattia Bergomi will speak about “Comparing Neural Networks via Generalized Persistence” on August 29th.

If you are bold enough to hear the world’s top mathematicians speaking of weird stuff you can find additional details here ?https://personal.ntu.edu.sg/XIAKELIN/TDAconf.html

Scope:
Topological data analysis (TDA) and TDA-based machine learning models have achieved great successes in various areas, such as materials, chemistry, biology, sensor networks, shape analysis, scientific visualization, dynamics systems, and image/text/video/audio/graph data analysis. Beyond TDA, various other geometric, topological and combinatorial models have been developed for representation, featurization, and analysis, including:

  • Multidimensional persistence, Zig-zag persistence, persistent local homology,
  • Reeb graph, discrete Morse theory, Conley index,
  • Path complex, Neighborhood complex, Dowker complex, hypergraph, and their persistent homology,
  • Geometric anomaly detection, discrete geometry, discrete exterior calculus, etc,
  • Spectral graph, spectral simplicial complex, spectral hypergraph, etc,
  • Graph/Hodge/Tarski Laplacian, p-Laplacian, topological Dirac,
  • Cellular Sheaves,
  • Persistent functions, persistent spectral, persistent Ricci curvature, etc.
