It provides robust, efficient, +flexible and easy to use implementations of state-of-the-art algorithms and +data structures. + +The current release of the GUDHI library includes: + +* Data structures to represent, construct and manipulate simplicial complexes. +* Algorithms to compute persistent homology and multi-field persistent homology. +* Simplication of simplicial complexes by edge contraction. + +All data-structures are generic and several of their aspects can be +parameterized via template classes. We refer to :cite:`gudhilibrary_ICMS14` +for a detailed description of the design of the library. + +Data structures +*************** + +Alpha complex +============= + +.. include:: alpha_complex_sum.rst + +Cubical complex +=============== + +.. include:: cubical_complex_sum.rst + +Rips complex +============ + +.. include:: rips_complex_sum.rst + +Simplex tree +============ + +.. include:: simplex_tree_sum.rst + +Tangential complex +================== + +.. include:: tangential_complex_sum.rst + +Witness complex +=============== + +.. include:: witness_complex_sum.rst + + +Toolbox +******* + +Bottleneck distance +=================== + +.. include:: bottleneck_distance_sum.rst + +Persistence cohomology +====================== + +.. include:: persistent_cohomology_sum.rst + +Persistence graphical tools +=========================== + +.. include:: persistence_graphical_tools_sum.rst + +.. include:: biblio.rst |
