An introduction to persistent homology for time series

Abstract

Topological data analysis (TDA) uses information from topological structures in complex data for statistical analysis and learning. This paper discusses persistent homology, a part of computational (algorithmic) topology that converts data into simplicial complexes and elicits information about the persistence of homology classes in the data. It computes and outputs the birth and death of such topologies via a persistence diagram. Data inputs for persistent homology are usually represented as point clouds or as functions, while the outputs depend on the nature of the analysis and commonly consist of either a persistence diagram, or persistence landscapes. This paper gives an introductory level tutorial on computing these summaries for time series using R, followed by an overview on using these approaches for time series classification and clustering. This article is categorized under: Statistical Learning and Exploratory Methods of the Data Sciences > Clustering and Classification Data: Types and Structure > Time Series, Stochastic Processes, and Functional Data Applications of Computational Statistics > Computational Mathematics

Assessment of reinforced concrete building damages following the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes in Malatya, Turkey (February 6, 2023)

Abstract

Earthquakes of magnitude Mw = 7.7 and Mw = 7.6 hit the city of Kahramanmaraş (Turkey) on 6 February 2023. These earthquakes caused serious damage in 11 provinces in Turkey resulting in over 50,000 deaths and huge economic losses with the collapse of thousands of buildings. Two consecutive devastating earthquakes have severely damaged the reinforced concrete building stock located in Malatya. There are many reasons reinforced concrete structures suffer damage under the influence of seismic loads. These reasons can be listed as material and section properties that do not comply with earthquake codes, workmanship defects, ground parameters that are not considered and design errors, as seen in field investigations after earthquakes in Turkey in the past. In this research, a field study was conducted on reinforced concrete buildings damaged after the earthquakes in Malatya province. The causes of structural damages in reinforced concrete buildings between 6–26 years of age were assessed in terms of design and material defects. The structural damages were mainly caused due to insufficient stirrups in structural members, short column, strong beam–weak column, failures of infill walls, soft story type collapse, poor concrete quality, and reinforcement corrosion. In addition to the field investigation, the spectrum relationships created using raw acceleration data obtained from DEMP (Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency) stations in Malatya province were compared with the design response spectra.
