  1. The Emergence of Higher-Order Structure in Scientific and Technological Knowledge Networks Gebhart, Thomas, and Funk, Russell J. arXiv preprint arXiv:2009.13620

    We use tools from algebraic topology to characterize the higher-order structure of knowledge networks in science and technology across scale.
  2. Applying SVM algorithms toward predicting host–guest interactions with cucurbit[7]uril Tabet, Anthony, Gebhart, Thomas, Wu, Guanglu, and al, Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

    DFT, NMR, ITC, and cell confluence data are used to generate predictive algorithms of supramolecular binding to cucurbit[7]uril and experimentally validate these predictions.
  3. Path Homologies of Deep Feedforward Networks Chowhury, Samir, Gebhart, Thomas, Huntsman, Steve, and Yutin, Matvey Proceedings of the 18th IEEE International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications (ICMLA)

    We characterize two types directed homology–path homology and directed rips homology–with respect to feedforward neural networks’ parameter connectivity.
  4. Characterizing the Shape of Activation Space in Deep Neural Networks Gebhart, Thomas, Schrater, Paul, and Hylton, Alan Proceedings of the 18th IEEE International Conference on Machine Learning and Applications (ICMLA)

    A method for computing persistent homology of activation space within neural networks. We also provide some empirical results about how this topological perspective can inform us about how neural networks process inputs.
  5. Adversary Detection in Neural Networks via Persistent Homology Gebhart, Thomas, and Schrater, Paul arXiv preprint arXiv:1711.10056

    We show that a multi-scale analysis of neural network activations is able to capture the existence of adversarial inputs within neural networks.
