DESCRIPTION:Primoz Skraba (Jozef Stefan Institute)\n\n	 \n\n	 \nPersiste
 nt homology is a central tool in topological data analysis. It describes v
 arious structures such as components\, holes\, voids\, etc. via a barcode 
 (or a persistence diagram)\, with longer bars representing "real" structur
 e and shorter bars representing "noise." A natural question is how long ar
 e the bars we can expect to see from data with no structure\, i.e. noise. 
 In this talk\, I will introduce some recent results regarding the persiste
 nt homology of random processes\, specifically\, a homogeneous Poisson pro
 cess. In particular\, I will describe how we obtain upper and lower bounds
  on what is the longest bar we expect to see if our input is "noise."\n\n
