Given a function f : X → R on a topological space, we consider the preimages of intervals and their homology groups and show how to read the ranks of these groups from the exten...

We consider generic curves in R2 , i.e. generic C1 functions f : S1 R2 . We analyze these curves through the persistent homology groups of a filtration induced on S1 by f. In parti...
We describe an algorithm for segmenting three-dimensional medical imaging data modeled as a continuous function on a 3-manifold. It is related to watershed algorithms developed in ...
Using ideas from persistent homology, the robustness of a level set of a real-valued function is defined in terms of the magnitude of the perturbation necessary to kill the classe...
