Algebraic topology as a tool in data analysis
Abstract:
I will discuss some attempts to recover topological information about geometric objects from ``point cloud data" sampled from the object. Examples will include data sets obtained from image data, and the problem of recognizing shapes, i.e. subcomplexes of Euclidean $3$-space.
