VMath - The Next Generation for Math Lectures on Streaming Video

Summary:

Computational topology tries to find the shape of a data set (e.g. clouds of points) by using a simplicial complex and computing Betti numbers. De Silva discusses more practical examples due to sampling and noise and proposes solutions to get around these problems.

Keywords:

Hot Topics; Visualization Analysis; High dimensional data; topology;homology; Betti number; simplicial complex; computational topology; bar codes.
