text: Various kinds of data are routinely represented as discrete probability distributions.
Examples include text documents summarized by histograms of word occurrences and
images represented as histograms of oriented gradients. Viewing a discrete probability
distribution as a point in the standard simplex of the appropriate dimension,
we can understand collections of such objects in geometric and topological terms. Importantly,
instead of using the standard Euclidean distance, we look into dissimilarity measures
with information-theoretic justification, and we develop the theory needed for
applying topological data analysis in this setting. In doing so, we emphasize
constructions that enable the usage of existing computational topology software
in this context.

text: "We study the topology generated by the temperature fluctuations of the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) radiation, as quantified by the number of components
and holes, formally given by the Betti numbers, in the growing excursion sets.
We compare CMB maps observed by the Planck satellite with a thousand simulated
maps generated according to the ΛCDM paradigm with Gaussian distributed fluctuations.
The comparison is multi-scale, being performed on a sequence of degraded maps
with mean pixel separation ranging from 0.05 to 7.33°. The survey of the CMB over
\U0001D54A2 is incomplete due to obfuscation effects by bright point sources and
other extended foreground objects like our own galaxy. To deal with such situations,
where analysis in the presence of “masks” is of importance, we introduce the concept
of relative homology. The parametric χ2-test shows differences between observations
and simulations, yielding p-values at percent to less than permil levels roughly
between 2 and 7°, with the difference in the number of components and holes peaking
at more than 3σ sporadically at these scales. The highest observed deviation between
the observations and simulations for b0 and b1 is approximately between 3σ and
4σ at scales of 3–7°. There are reports of mildly unusual behaviour of the Euler
characteristic at 3.66° in the literature, computed from independent measurements
of the CMB temperature fluctuations by Planck’s predecessor, the Wilkinson Microwave
Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) satellite. The mildly anomalous behaviour of the Euler
characteristic is phenomenologically related to the strongly anomalous behaviour
of components and holes, or the zeroth and first Betti numbers, respectively.
Further, since these topological descriptors show consistent anomalous behaviour
over independent measurements of Planck and WMAP, instrumental and systematic
errors may be an unlikely source. These are also the scales at which the observed
maps exhibit low variance compared to the simulations, and approximately the range
of scales at which the power spectrum exhibits a dip with respect to the theoretical
model. Non-parametric tests show even stronger differences at almost all scales.
Crucially, Gaussian simulations based on power-spectrum matching the characteristics
of the observed dipped power spectrum are not able to resolve the anomaly. Understanding
the origin of the anomalies in the CMB, whether cosmological in nature or arising
due to late-time effects, is an extremely challenging task. Regardless, beyond
the trivial possibility that this may still be a manifestation of an extreme Gaussian
case, these observations, along with the super-horizon scales involved, may motivate
the study of primordial non-Gaussianity. Alternative scenarios worth exploring
may be models with non-trivial topology, including topological defect models."

text: Smallest enclosing spheres of finite point sets are central to methods in
topological data analysis. Focusing on Bregman divergences to measure dissimilarity,
we prove bounds on the location of the center of a smallest enclosing sphere.
These bounds depend on the range of radii for which Bregman balls are convex.

text: We present an efficient algorithm to compute Euler characteristic curves of
gray scale images of arbitrary dimension. In various applications the Euler characteristic
curve is used as a descriptor of an image. Our algorithm is the first streaming
algorithm for Euler characteristic curves. The usage of streaming removes the
necessity to store the entire image in RAM. Experiments show that our implementation
handles terabyte scale images on commodity hardware. Due to lock-free parallelism,
it scales well with the number of processor cores. Additionally, we put the concept
of the Euler characteristic curve in the wider context of computational topology.
In particular, we explain the connection with persistence diagrams.

text: Phat is an open-source C. ++ library for the computation of persistent homology
by matrix reduction, targeted towards developers of software for topological data
analysis. We aim for a simple generic design that decouples algorithms from data
structures without sacrificing efficiency or user-friendliness. We provide numerous
different reduction strategies as well as data types to store and manipulate the
boundary matrix. We compare the different combinations through extensive experimental
evaluation and identify optimization techniques that work well in practical situations.
We also compare our software with various other publicly available libraries for
persistent homology.

text: 'We show that the framework of topological data analysis can be extended from
metrics to general Bregman divergences, widening the scope of possible applications.
Examples are the Kullback - Leibler divergence, which is commonly used for comparing
text and images, and the Itakura - Saito divergence, popular for speech and sound.
In particular, we prove that appropriately generalized čech and Delaunay (alpha)
complexes capture the correct homotopy type, namely that of the corresponding
union of Bregman balls. Consequently, their filtrations give the correct persistence
diagram, namely the one generated by the uniformly growing Bregman balls. Moreover,
we show that unlike the metric setting, the filtration of Vietoris-Rips complexes
may fail to approximate the persistence diagram. We propose algorithms to compute
the thus generalized čech, Vietoris-Rips and Delaunay complexes and experimentally
test their efficiency. Lastly, we explain their surprisingly good performance
by making a connection with discrete Morse theory. '
