--- _id: '1930' abstract: - lang: eng text: (Figure Presented) Data acquisition, numerical inaccuracies, and sampling often introduce noise in measurements and simulations. Removing this noise is often necessary for efficient analysis and visualization of this data, yet many denoising techniques change the minima and maxima of a scalar field. For example, the extrema can appear or disappear, spatially move, and change their value. This can lead to wrong interpretations of the data, e.g., when the maximum temperature over an area is falsely reported being a few degrees cooler because the denoising method is unaware of these features. Recently, a topological denoising technique based on a global energy optimization was proposed, which allows the topology-controlled denoising of 2D scalar fields. While this method preserves the minima and maxima, it is constrained by the size of the data. We extend this work to large 2D data and medium-sized 3D data by introducing a novel domain decomposition approach. It allows processing small patches of the domain independently while still avoiding the introduction of new critical points. Furthermore, we propose an iterative refinement of the solution, which decreases the optimization energy compared to the previous approach and therefore gives smoother results that are closer to the input. We illustrate our technique on synthetic and real-world 2D and 3D data sets that highlight potential applications. acknowledgement: RTRA Digiteoproject; ERC grant; SNF award; Intel Doctoral Fellowship; MPC-VCC author: - first_name: David full_name: Günther, David last_name: Günther - first_name: Alec full_name: Jacobson, Alec last_name: Jacobson - first_name: Jan full_name: Reininghaus, Jan id: 4505473A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Reininghaus - first_name: Hans full_name: Seidel, Hans last_name: Seidel - first_name: Olga full_name: Sorkine Hornung, Olga last_name: Sorkine Hornung - first_name: Tino full_name: Weinkauf, Tino last_name: Weinkauf citation: ama: Günther D, Jacobson A, Reininghaus J, Seidel H, Sorkine Hornung O, Weinkauf T.

Advances in algorithms for computing persistent homology have reduced the computation time drastically – as long as the algorithm does not exhaust the available memory. Following up on a recently presented parallel method for persistence computation on shared memory systems [1], we demonstrate that a simple adaption of the standard reduction algorithm leads to a variant for distributed systems. Our algorithmic design ensures that the data is distributed over the nodes without redundancy; this permits the computation of much larger instances than on a single machine. Moreover, we observe that the parallelism at least compensates for the overhead caused by communication between nodes, and often even speeds up the computation compared to sequential and even parallel shared memory algorithms. In our experiments, we were able to compute the persistent homology of filtrations with more than a billion (109) elements within seconds on a cluster with 32 nodes using less than 6GB of memory per node. author: - first_name: Ulrich full_name: Bauer, Ulrich id: 2ADD483A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Bauer orcid: 0000-0002-9683-0724 - first_name: Michael full_name: Kerber, Michael last_name: Kerber orcid: 0000-0002-8030-9299 - first_name: Jan full_name: Reininghaus, Jan id: 4505473A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Reininghaus citation: ama: 'Bauer U, Kerber M, Reininghaus J.

Our approach differs from the commonly used reduction algorithm by first computing persistence pairs within local chunks, then simplifying the unpaired columns, and finally applying standard reduction on the simplified matrix. The approach generalizes a technique by Günther et al., which uses discrete Morse Theory to compute persistence; we derive the same worst-case complexity bound in a more general context. The algorithm employs several practical optimization techniques, which are of independent interest. Our sequential implementation of the algorithm is competitive with state-of-the-art methods, and we further improve the performance through parallel computation. author: - first_name: Ulrich full_name: Bauer, Ulrich id: 2ADD483A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Bauer orcid: 0000-0002-9683-0724 - first_name: Michael full_name: Kerber, Michael last_name: Kerber orcid: 0000-0002-8030-9299 - first_name: Jan full_name: Reininghaus, Jan id: 4505473A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Reininghaus citation: ama: 'Bauer U, Kerber M, Reininghaus J.

Under this distance, the Reeb graph is stable against small changes of input functions. At the same time, it remains discriminative at differentiating input functions. In particular, the main result is that the functional distortion distance between two Reeb graphs is bounded from below by the bottleneck distance between both the ordinary and extended persistence diagrams for appropriate dimensions. As an application of our results, we analyze a natural simplification scheme for Reeb graphs, and show that persistent features in Reeb graph remains persistent under simplification. Understanding the stability of important features of the Reeb graph under simplification is an interesting problem on its own right, and critical to the practical usage of Reeb graphs.

We do this by reducing the rank computation for sparse matrices with to non-zero entries to computing Betti numbers of simplicial complexes consisting of at most a constant times to simplices. Together with the known reduction in the other direction, this implies that the two problems have the same computational complexity. author: - first_name: Herbert full_name: Edelsbrunner, Herbert id: 3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Edelsbrunner orcid: 0000-0002-9823-6833 - first_name: Salman full_name: Parsa, Salman id: 4BDBD4F2-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Parsa citation: ama: 'Edelsbrunner H, Parsa S.

We consider a computational version, where X,Y are given as finite simplicial complexes, and the goal is to compute [X,Y], that is, all homotopy classes of suchmaps.We solve this problem in the stable range, where for some d ≥ 2, we have dim X ≤ 2d-2 and Y is (d-1)-connected; in particular, Y can be the d-dimensional sphere Sd. The algorithm combines classical tools and ideas from homotopy theory (obstruction theory, Postnikov systems, and simplicial sets) with algorithmic tools from effective algebraic topology (locally effective simplicial sets and objects with effective homology). In contrast, [X,Y] is known to be uncomputable for general X,Y, since for X = S1 it includes a well known undecidable problem: testing triviality of the fundamental group of Y. In follow-up papers, the algorithm is shown to run in polynomial time for d fixed, and extended to other problems, such as the extension problem, where we are given a subspace A ⊂ X and a map A→ Y and ask whether it extends to a map X → Y, or computing the Z2-index-everything in the stable range. Outside the stable range, the extension problem is undecidable.' acknowledgement: The research by M. K. was supported by project GAUK 49209. The research by M.
