Topology and Intelligent Data Analysis

A broad range of mathematical techniques, ranging from statistics to fuzzy logic, have been used to great advantage in intelligent data analysis. Topology – the fundamental mathematics of shape – has to date been conspicuously absent from this repertoire. This paper shows how topology, properly reformulated for a finite-precision world, can be useful in intelligent data analysis tasks.
