Explore topological algorithms for comparing time series data in this 34-minute talk. Gain an understanding of the persistent homology algorithm, learn about the caveats of analyzing and comparing time series data, and discover how to implement the algorithm in R. The presentation covers time series data, topology, homology, and comparing time series with persistent homology. Follow along with a live R coding demonstration and participate in Q&A sessions. Access provided datasets and code files to practice the concepts discussed. Suitable for data scientists and analysts interested in advanced time series analysis techniques.
