A Multi-parameter Persistence Framework for Mathematical Morphology
The field of mathematical morphology offers well-studied techniques for image processing. In this work, we view morphological operations through the lens of persistent homology, a tool at the heart of the field of topological data analysis. We demonstrate that morphological operations naturally form a multiparameter filtration and that persistent homology can then be used to extract information about both topology and geometry in the images as well as to automate methods for optimizing the study and rendering of structure in images. For illustration, we apply this framework to analyze noisy binary, grayscale, and color images.

Some equivalence relation between persistent homology and morphological dynamics
In Mathematical Morphology (MM), connected filters based on dynamics are used to filter the extrema of an image. Similarly, persistence is a concept coming from Persistent Homology (PH) and Morse Theory (MT) that represe…
RelationTopological Data AnalysisStability of topological descriptors for neuronal morphology
The topological morphology descriptor of a neuron is a multiset of intervals associated to the shape of the neuron represented as a tree. In practice, topological morphology descriptors are vectorized using persistence i…
Barcodes distinguish morphology of neuronal tauopathy
The geometry of neurons is known to be important for their functions. Hence, neurons are often classified by their morphology. Two recent methods, persistent homology and the topological morphology descriptor, assign a m…
Persistence diagrams as morphological signatures of cells: A method to measure and compare cells within a population
Cell biologists study in parallel the morphology of cells with the regulation mechanisms that modify this morphology. Such studies are complicated by the inherent heterogeneity present in the cell population. It remains …
Topological Data AnalysisCan neural networks learn persistent homology features?
Topological data analysis uses tools from topology -- the mathematical area that studies shapes -- to create representations of data. In particular, in persistent homology, one studies one-parameter families of spaces as…
