灰度图像上的持续同源性的噪声鲁棒性,跨越过滤和签名

Noise robustness of persistent homology on greyscale images, across filtrations and signatures

摘要:

拓扑数据分析是一个最近和快速增长的领域,它使用(代数)拓扑的技术来分析数据集。它的主要工具,持久同源性(PH),在过去十年中的应用显着增加。经常被引用为PH的最有利的属性和实际成功的主要原因是稳定性定理,它给出了关于噪声鲁棒性的理论结果,因为实际数据通常被噪声或测量误差污染。然而,很少有人注意到这些稳定性定理在实践中意味着什么。为了深入了解这个问题,我们评估了噪声鲁棒性的PH上的MNIST数据集的灰度图像。更确切地说,我们调查到什么程度PH值的变化下的典型形式的图像噪声,并量化的损失的性能分类的MNIST手写数字时,噪声被添加到数据。结果表明,PH对噪声的敏感性受过滤和持久性特征(分别为PH的输入和输出)的选择影响,特别是PH特征在分类任务中对噪声往往不具有鲁棒性。

英文摘要:

Topological data analysis is a recent and fast growing field that approaches the analysis of datasets using techniques from (algebraic) topology. Its main tool, persistent homology (PH), has seen a notable increase in applications in the last decade. Often cited as the most favourable property of PH and the main reason for practical success are the stability theorems that give theoretical results about noise robustness, since real data is typically contaminated with noise or measurement errors. However, little attention has been paid to what these stability theorems mean in practice. To gain some insight into this question, we evaluate the noise robustness of PH on the MNIST dataset of greyscale images. More precisely, we investigate to what extent PH changes under typical forms of image noise, and quantify the loss of performance in classifying the MNIST handwritten digits when noise is added to the data. The results show that the sensitivity to noise of PH is influenced by the choice of filtrations and persistence signatures (respectively the input and output of PH), and in particular, that PH features are often not robust to noise in a classification task.
