Abstract

We show that recent results on randomized dimension reduction schemes that exploit structural properties of data can be applied in the context of persistent homology. In the spirit of compressed sensing, the dimension reduction is determined by the Gaussian width of a structure associated to the data set, rather than its size. The Gaussian width also turns out to be useful for studying the complexity of other methods for approximating persistent homology.
