Abstract

Analysis of multidimensional data is challenging. Topological invariants can be used to summarize essential features of such data sets. In this work, we propose to compute the Betti numbers from a generative model based on a simplicial complex learnt from the data. We compare it to the Witness Complex, a geometric technique based on nearest neighbors. Our results on different data distributions with known topology show that Betti numbers are well recovered with our method.
