The goal of this repository is to create a filter which will be used as a new persistence diagram filter in ttk which takes the persistence based on the volume of a saddle-max or min-saddle pair rather than taking the simple z-coordinate difference when calculating the persistence. This is likely to be more useful as a whole for noisy data.
The current iteration is an amalgamation of the pieces that will be used in the final product as well as old tests used to work toward the current solution. It is not intended as a working product currently.
