the complex Polyakov-line plain without taking the spatial average and then the plain is divided
into three domains. The spatial distribution of the data in the individual domain is analyzed
by using the persistent homology. In the confined phase, the data in the three domains show
the same topological tendency characterized by the birth and death times of the holes which are
estimated via the filtration of the alpha complexes in the data space, but do not in the deconfined
phase. By considering the configuration averaged ratio of the birth and death times of holes, we
can construct the nonlocal order-parameter of the confinement-deconfinement transition from the
topological viewpoint of the data space.
