TDAmapper: Topological Data Analysis using Mapper

An R package for using discrete Morse theory to analyze a data set using the Mapper algorithm described in:

G. Singh, F. Memoli, G. Carlsson (2007). Topological Methods for the Analysis of High Dimensional Data Sets and 3D Object Recognition, Point Based Graphics 2007, Prague, September 2007.

To install the latest version of this R package directly from github:

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("paultpearson/TDAmapper")
library(TDAmapper)

To install from Github you might need:

Windows: Rtools (http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/)
OS X: xcode (from the app store)
Linux: apt-get install r-base-dev (or similar).

To install the stable version of this R package from CRAN:

install.packages("TDAmapper")

# The fastcluster package is not necessary.  By loading the
# fastcluster package, the fastcluster::hclust() function 
# automatically replaces the slower stats::hclust() function
# whenever hclust() is called.
install.packages("fastcluster") 
require(fastcluster)

m1 <- mapper1D(
    distance_matrix = dist(data.frame( x=2*cos(0.5*(1:100)), y=sin(1:100) )),
    filter_values = 2*cos(0.5*(1:100)),
    num_intervals = 10,
    percent_overlap = 50,
    num_bins_when_clustering = 10)

# The igraph package is necessary to view simplicial complexes
# (undirected graph) resulting from mapper1D().
install.packages("igraph") 
library(igraph)

g1 <- graph.adjacency(m1$adjacency, mode="undirected")
plot(g1, layout = layout.auto(g1) )

m2 <- mapper2D(
    distance_matrix = dist(data.frame( x=2*cos(1:100), y=sin(1:100) )),
    filter_values = list( 2*cos(1:100), sin(1:100) ),
    num_intervals = c(5,5),
    percent_overlap = 50,
    num_bins_when_clustering = 10)

g2 <- graph.adjacency(m2$adjacency, mode="undirected")
plot(g2, layout = layout.auto(g2) )

# sample points from two intertwined spirals
set.seed("1")
t <- runif(100, min=1, max=6.3) # theta
X <- data.frame( x = c( t*cos(t), -t*cos(t) ), y = c( t*sin(t), -t*sin(t) ) )
d <- dist(X)
plot(X[,1], X[,2])

filter <- X[,2] # height projection
num_intervals <- 10
percent_overlap <- 50
num_bins_when_clustering <- 10

m3 <- mapper1D(
    distance_matrix = d, 
    filter_values = filter, 
    # num_intervals = 10, # use default
    # percent_overlap = 50, # use default
    # num_bins_when_clustering = 10 # use default
    )

g3 <- graph.adjacency(m3$adjacency, mode="undirected")
plot(g3, layout = layout.auto(g3) )

Author's notes to himself (you can ignore this section)

These are some notes by the package author to himself about the package creation process. Locally installing, building, and checking the package can be done with:

The mapper1D function by Paul Pearson is a cleaned-up, modified, and ported version of the Mapper code by Daniel Muellner and Gurjeet Singh originally written for Matlab. What follows is the copyright notice included in the Matlab code written by Muellner, which was based on code written by Singh.

This is a cleaned-up and modified version of the Mapper code by
Gurjeet Singh. It also corrects two bugs which are present in the
original Mapper code.
