We need a tag for topological data analysis. It is a rapidly growing field, so there will be more and more posts about it. Currently, questions about TDA come up under the tags algebraic-topology, homology-cohomology, data-analysis, category-theory, and a few more. These are insufficient for searchability as TDA is its own distinct topic that is not directly encompassed by any of these tags.

These are insufficient for searchability as TDA is its own distinct topic that is not directly encompassed by any of these tags. We have a few options here. topological-data-analysis <-- probably the most widely-used umbrella name for this field; however, it does seem to add an emphasis on applications computational-topology <-- more algorithm-y, less data science-y persistent-homology <-- probably the most accurate for most questions in TDA, however, this excludes some other topics in TDA persistence <-- the
