"I find this a nice introduction to the topic of data analysis using topological features of data: http://normaldeviate.wordpress.com/2012/07/01/topological-data-analysis/ Vanessa Robins (http://people.physics.anu.edu.au/~vbr110/) did lots of…"

"Algebraic topology associates algebraic invariants (integers, groups, rings, etc) to topological spaces. The field of applied algebraic topology is relatively new and is relevant to this question, I think. The "Topology and Data" by Gunnar…"

"Peter, Thanks for sharing.  I wonder if the database is publicly available to review.  Simplistically, I would like to see a world map with circles on it - the size of the circles would represent the number of bombs dropped.  I got…"

"Lance, Interesting article on some Air Force officer compiling (DE-CLASSIFIED hopefully) every record of bombs dropped since WW1. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/air-force-officer-creates-database-every-u-bomb-190227673.html   This can…"

"Contrare, Lance.  The example was fine.  You just wet my appetite more so.  The game theory thing is something worth exploring.  I would love to borrow the Munkre book from soem college book store, as on Amazon it's over…"

"The application of topological spaces covers a very wide area of interests, including economics - my favorite.  Topology, with respect to economics, is used in consumer preferences, utility and individual/society choice.  The topology…"

"Thanks, Vince.  The only BASIC understanding I got recently was in the Tan, Steinbach and Kumar book, "Introduction to Data Mining" (Pearson Education, 2006), Section 7.5.4 (Candidate Generation).  The clustering problems must…"

Topological Approach to Data Mining

I am NOT an academic nor a graduate tudent somewhere.  However, I read books on Topology out of personal interest.  Does anyone here have any interesting links or white papers on using mathematical topological (metric space, etc.) approaches to data mining.  After wtaching some PBS series on mathematics, I am also interested in looking at Euler's formulas for data mining as well. See More
