Morse Theory
Topological data analysis (TDA) is a method that uses concepts from topology to study the shape and structure of data. It enables the extraction of meaningful patterns and features from complex datasets by examining their topological properties, such as connectedness and holes. TDA often employs tools like Morse theory and Reeb graphs, linking it to characteristics of Morse functions, topological invariants, and visualization techniques to better understand high-dimensional data.
