商品描述

This book concentrates on mining networks, a subfield within data science. Many data science problems can be viewed as a study of some properties of complex networks in which nodes represent the entities that are being investigated, and edges represent relations between these entities.

In these networks (for example, Instagram and Facebook online social networks), nodes not only contain some useful information (such as the user's profile, photos, tags) but are also internally connected to other nodes (relations based on follower requests, similar users' behavior, age, geographic location). Such networks are often large-scale, decentralized, and evolve dynamically over time.

Mining complex networks to understand the principles governing the organization and the behavior of such networks is crucial for a broad range of fields of study, including information and social sciences, economics, biology, and neuroscience.

The field has seen significant advancements since the first edition was published. Changes and updates to this edition include:

  • New material and examples on random geometric graphs
  • The chapter on node embeddings was augmented in several places including a discussion on classical vs. structural embeddings, more details on graph neural networks (GNNs), as well as other directions.
  • Several new tools and techniques are introduced on mining hypergraphs
  • New material on post-processing for overlapping communities
  • A new focus on a framework for embedding graphs codeveloped by the authors.
  • A short chapter on fairness in network mining models.

This book is aimed at being suitable for an upper-year undergraduate course or a graduate course.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書專注於網絡挖掘,這是數據科學的一個子領域。許多數據科學問題可以被視為對複雜網絡某些屬性的研究,其中節點代表被調查的實體,而邊則代表這些實體之間的關係。

在這些網絡中(例如,Instagram 和 Facebook 的在線社交網絡),節點不僅包含一些有用的信息(如用戶的個人資料、照片、標籤),還與其他節點內部相連(基於關注請求、相似用戶行為、年齡、地理位置的關係)。這類網絡通常是大規模的、去中心化的,並且隨著時間的推移而動態演變。

挖掘複雜網絡以理解支配這些網絡組織和行為的原則,對於包括信息科學、社會科學、經濟學、生物學和神經科學等廣泛的研究領域至關重要。

自第一版出版以來,該領域已經取得了顯著的進展。本版的變更和更新包括:
- 新增隨機幾何圖的材料和範例
- 節點嵌入的章節在幾個地方進行了增補,包括對經典嵌入與結構嵌入的討論、圖神經網絡(GNNs)的更多細節,以及其他方向
- 引入了幾種新的工具和技術來挖掘超圖
- 新增有關重疊社區的後處理材料
- 新增一個由作者共同開發的圖嵌入框架的重點
- 一個關於網絡挖掘模型公平性的簡短章節

這本書旨在適合高年級本科課程或研究生課程。
