Computational Geometry and Topology -- Exam


You must choose one paper within the list below. Please note that each paper must be chosen by at most one person. Once your choice has been made, you must report it on the dedicated poll (first come first serve) before October 1st.

Nearest neighbor search

Reconstruction

Metric clustering

Persistent homology

Topological inference

Topological data analysis

Your task is to read and understand the paper (even if not in full). In particular, you should focus on its goals, challenges, proposed methods, guarantees, experimental results, and limitations. Remember not to lose time on insignificant aspects. Quality will be judged by three main criteria:

On defence day you must deliver a talk with slides and be prepared for an ensuing discussion. No written report is expected.
