We are happy to announce the release of the software SimPers that can compute topological persistence of a sequence of simplicial complexes connected with SIMPLICIAL MAPS. We hope that this will fill the need for computing persistence under maps more general than inclusions. The software has been developed by the computational geometry/topology research group at CSE, OSU based on the paper:
Computing topological persistence for simplicial maps
T. K. Dey, F. Fan, and Y. Wang., (SoCG 2014), Proc. 30th Annu. Sympos. Comput. Geom. (2013).

Thanks.
