In the current implantation, filtration is given at the maximal cubes, and it is then extended by the lower star
filtration to all cubes. There are a number of constructors that can be used to construct cubical complex by users
who want to use the code directly. They can be found in the :doc:`cubical_complex_ref`.

+Currently one input from a text file is used. It uses a format inspired from the Perseus software
`Perseus software <http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~vnanda/perseus/>`_ by Vidit Nanda.

+ While Perseus assume the filtration of all maximal cubes to be non-negative, over here we do not enforce this and
