The shape of data

Speaker: 
Ulrike Tillmann
Institution: 
Mathematical Institute, Oxford
Schedule: 
Friday, April 14, 2023 - 12:00
Location: 
A-128
Abstract: 

The field of topological data analysis is still quite young. We will give an introduction, look at some applications, and discuss theoretical challenges. Beyond some basic linear algebra, little previous knowledge will be assumed.
