Preprint "Random Abstract Cell Complexes" updated

The preprint introduces a model for random abstract cell complexes and a method to sample 2-dimensional cell complexes. We’ve updated the preprint after improving the accuracy of the approximate sampling and the presentation in the paper.

We have also highlighted the use case of this approach for (approximately) calculating properties over the cycles on a graph. To this end, the companion python package py-raccoon now exposes intermediate data.

The preprint is available on arXiv and py-raccoon on PyPI.
