Persistence-Based Clustering in Riemannian Manifolds (2009)

Chazal, Frédéric, Guibas, Leonidas J., Oudot, Steve, Skraba, Primoz

We present a novel clustering algorithm that combines a mode-seeking phase with a cluster merging phase. While mode detection is performed by a standard graph-based hill-climbing scheme, the novelty...

Finding Friends and Followers in Sub-linear Time (2009)

Arthur, David, Oudot, Steve, Sharma, Anneesh

The approximate Nearest Neighbor (NN) search problem asks to pre-process a given set of points $P$ in such a way that, given any query point $q$, one can retrieve a point in $P$ that is approximately...

Proximity of Persistence Modules and their Diagrams (2008)

Chazal, Frédéric, Cohen-Steiner, David, Glisse, Marc, Guibas, Leonidas J., Oudot, Steve

Topological persistence has proven to be a key concept for the study of real-valued functions defined over topological spaces. Its validity relies on the fundamental property that the persistence...

The Stability of Persistence Diagrams Revisited (2008)

Chazal, Frédéric, Cohen-Steiner, David, Guibas, Leonidas J., Oudot, Steve

The concept of topological persistence introduced independently by several groups \cite{elz-tps-02,r-tchfa-99,f-dcsf-92} is a rather general tool providing an efficient way to encode the qualitative...

Learning Smooth Shapes by Probing (2008)

Jean-daniel Boissonnat, Leonidas J. Guibas, Steve Oudot

We consider the problem of discovering a smooth unknown surface S bounding an object O in R 3. The discovery process consists of moving a point probing device in the free space around O so that it...

On the Topology of the Restricted Delaunay Triangulation and Witness Complex in Higher Dimensions. (2008)

Oudot, Steve

It is a well-known fact that, under mild sampling conditions, the restricted Delaunay triangulation provides good topological approximations of 1- and 2-manifolds. We show that this is not the case...

Meshing Volumes Bounded by Smooth Surfaces (2006)

Oudot, Steve, Rineau, Laurent, Yvinec, Mariette

This paper introduces a three-dimensional mesh generation algorithm for domains bounded by smooth surfaces. The method combines a surface mesher with a volume mesher, both based on Delaunay...
