Topology and Geometry for Data Analysis

This is the seminar in the Department of Computer Science at Purdue Universty that studies how Topology and Geometry (and occasionally Dynamical Systems) can be applied to Data Analysis. In Spring 2021, we will be meeting on Wednesdays at 3:00 pm (Eastern). Feel free to come, regardless of affiliation! Our schedule is as follows:
