Characterising epithelial tissues using persistent entropyN. Atienza, L. M. Escudero, M. J. Jimenez et al.
In this paper, we apply persistent entropy, a novel topological statistic, for characterization of images of epithelial tissues. We have found out that persistent entropy is able to summarize topological and geometric information encoded by α-complexes and persistent homology. After using some statistical tests, we can guarantee the existence of significant differences in the studied tissues.
