Abstract

This course complements the course „Introduction to Topological Data Analysis“. Students of the seminar will collaborate with students from international universities on concrete projects in topological data analysis or other areas of applied topology.

Objective

Each student is expected to collaborate in an international working group with students from the partner universities. Each group works on one of the projects suggested by the lecturers, and is assigned a mentor. At the end of the semester, each working group presents their findings in a written report and an oral presentation.

Content

This course complements the course "Introduction to Topological Data Analysis". Students get to apply what they learned in the introductory course to concrete projects in the area of topological data analysis or other areas of applied topology. These projects can be of theoretical nature, e.g., the design and analysis of a new algorithm, or applied, such as using methods from topological data analysis on concrete data sets.
