Computational Topology for Biomedical Image and Data Analysis: Theory and Applications PDF

This book provides an accessible yet rigorous introduction to topology and homology focused on the simplicial space. It presents a compact pipeline from the foundations of topology to biomedical applications. It will be of interest to medical physicists, computer scientists, and engineers, as well as undergraduate and graduate students interested in this topic.

Features:

Presents a practical guide to algebraic topology as well as persistence homology

Contains application examples in the field of biomedicine, including the analysis of histological images and point cloud data
