A roadmap for the computation of persistent homology

1 code implementation30 Jun 2015 Nina Otter, Mason A. Porter, Ulrike Tillmann, Peter Grindrod, Heather A. Harrington

We give a friendly introduction to PH, navigate the pipeline for the computation of PH with an eye towards applications, and use a range of synthetic and real-world data sets to evaluate currently available open-source implementations for the computation of PH.

Multiscale Topology Characterises Dynamic Tumour Vascular Networks

1 code implementation19 Aug 2020 Bernadette J. Stolz, Jakob Kaeppler, Bostjan Markelc, Franziska Mech, Florian Lipsmeier, Ruth J. Muschel, Helen M. Byrne, Heather A. Harrington

Advances in imaging techniques enable high resolution 3D visualisation of vascular networks over time and reveal abnormal structural features such as twists and loops, and their quantification is an active area of research.

Topological data analysis distinguishes parameter regimes in the Anderson-Chaplain model of angiogenesis

1 code implementation2 Jan 2021 John T. Nardini, Bernadette J. Stolz, Kevin B. Flores, Heather A. Harrington, Helen M. Byrne

Here we simulate the Anderson-Chaplain model of angiogenesis at different parameter values and quantify the vessel architectures of the resulting synthetic data.

Multiscale methods for signal selection in single-cell data

1 code implementation15 Jun 2022 Renee S. Hoekzema, Lewis Marsh, Otto Sumray, Thomas M. Carroll, Xin Lu, Helen M. Byrne, Heather A. Harrington

Analysis of single-cell transcriptomics often relies on clustering cells and then performing differential gene expression (DGE) to identify genes that vary between these clusters.

Stratifying multiparameter persistent homology

no code implementations24 Aug 2017 Heather A. Harrington, Nina Otter, Hal Schenck, Ulrike Tillmann

A fundamental tool in topological data analysis is persistent homology, which allows extraction of information from complex datasets in a robust way.

Topological Data Analysis of Task-Based fMRI Data from Experiments on Schizophrenia

no code implementations22 Sep 2018 Bernadette J. Stolz, Tegan Emerson, Satu Nahkuri, Mason A. Porter, Heather A. Harrington

With these tools, which allow one to characterize topological invariants such as loops in high-dimensional data, we are able to gain understanding into low-dimensional structures in networks in a way that complements traditional approaches that are based on pairwise interactions.

The MEK/ERK signalling pathway is involved in cell division, cell specialisation, survival and cell death.

Barcodes distinguish morphology of neuronal tauopathy

no code implementations7 Apr 2022 David Beers, Despoina Goniotaki, Diane P. Hanger, Alain Goriely, Heather A. Harrington

We introduce {topological morphology functions}, a class of functions similar to Sholl functions, that can be recovered from the associated topological morphology descriptor.

Zigzag persistence for coral reef resilience using a stochastic spatial model

1 code implementation19 Sep 2022 Robert A. McDonald, Rosanna Neuhausler, Martin Robinson, Laurel G. Larsen, Heather A. Harrington, Maria Bruna

Finally, we apply this toolkit of multi-scale methods to empirical coral reef data, which distinguish spatio-temporal reef dynamics in different locations, and demonstrate the applicability to a range of datasets.

Topological classification of tumour-immune interactions and dynamics

no code implementations10 Aug 2023 Jingjie Yang, Heidi Fang, Jagdeep Dhesi, Iris H. R. Yoon, Joshua A. Bull, Helen M. Byrne, Heather A. Harrington, Gillian Grindstaff

We find additionally that dimension 0 persistence applied to macrophage data, representing multi-scale clusters of the spatial arrangement of macrophages, performs best at this classification task at early time steps, prior to full tumour development, and performs even better when time-dependent data are included; in contrast, topological measures capturing the shape of the tumour, such as tortuosity and punctures in the cell arrangement, perform best at intermediate and later stages.
