Bayesian Topological Machine Learning, Christopher A. Oballe
Doctoral Dissertations
Topological data analysis encompasses a broad set of ideas and techniques that address 1) how to rigorously define and summarize the shape of data, and 2) use these constructs for inference. This dissertation addresses the second problem by developing new inferential tools for topological data analysis and applying them to solve real-world data problems. First, a Bayesian framework to approximate probability distributions of persistence diagrams is established. The key insight underpinning this framework is that persistence diagrams may be viewed as Poisson point processes with prior intensities. With this assumption in hand, one may compute posterior intensities by adopting techniques …

National Quail Symposium Proceedings
Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) populations have been declining across their range for decades because of habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation. Habitat restoration and management—sometimes coupled with other cultural practices—has long been the paradigm for bobwhite conservation. However, the lack of peer-reviewed empirical evidence supporting the success of active management to increase bobwhite density and growth rates has created skepticism and uncertainty among some conservationists and user groups. Thus, our objectives were to test the basic prediction that active management can increase bobwhite populations across a large spatial extent and highlight the importance of population monitoring to refine management …
