Persistence diagrams are important tools in the field of topological data analysis that describe the presence and magnitude of features in a filtered topological space. However, current approaches for comparing a persistence diagram to a set of other persistence diagrams is linear in the number of diagrams or do not offer performance guarantees. In this paper, we apply concepts from locality-sensitive hashing to support approximate nearest neighbor search in the space of persistence diagrams… Expand

On Computing a Center Persistence Diagram
It is shown, by a non-trivial reduction from the Planar 3D-Matching problem, that this problem is NP-hard even when $m=3$ diagrams are given, which implies that the general center problem for persistence diagrams under the bottleneck distance, when $P_i$'s possibly have different sizes, is also NP- hard.
