From group theoretic point of view, this is done by taking the quotient of the cycle groups with the boundary groups, which is allowed since the boundary group is a subgroup of the cycle group.

IV.2 Homology
... result that homotopy equivalent spaces have isomorphic homology groups is plausible. For example, we can free ourselves from the triangulation entirely and define chains in terms of continuous maps from the standard simplex into the space X. This gives rise to so-called singular homology, which has ...

... Homology is the general name for a number of functors from topological spaces to abelian groups (or more generally modules over a fixed ring). It turns out that in most reasonable cases a large number of these (singular homology, cellular homology, Morse homology, simplicial homology) all coincide. ...

... Abstract. This paper is a survey of some recent joint work of Hans Boden, Paul Kirk and the author, as well as work by Cappell, Lee, and Miller, on generalizing the Casson invariant to the group SU (3). The main challenge here is that in this setting there are nontrivial reducible representations. B ...
