This book concentrates on mining networks, a subfield within data science. Mining complex networks to understand the principles governing the organization and the behaviour of such networks is crucial for a broad range of fields of study.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 4th Workshop on Combinatorial and Algorithmic Aspects of Networking, CAAN 2007, held in Halifax, Canada, in August 2007, co-located with the 10th Workshop on Algorithms and Data Structures, WADS 2007. The main focus is on strategies for searching in networks, and for cleaning networks of unwanted intruders, on different routing strategies, and on scheduling and load balancing.
This book provides a broad overview of the state of the art of the research in generative methods for the analysis of social media data. It especially includes two important aspects that currently gain importance in mining and modelling social media: dynamics and networks. The book is divided into five chapters and provides an extensive bibliography consisting of more than 250 papers. After a quick introduction and survey of the book in the first chapter, chapter 2 is devoted to the discussion of data models and ontologies for social network analysis. Next, chapter 3 deals with text generation and generative text models and the dangers they pose to social media and society at large. Chapter 4 then focuses on topic modelling and sentiment analysis in the context of social networks. Finally, Chapter 5 presents graph theory tools and approaches to mine and model social networks. Throughout the book, open problems, highlighting potential future directions, are clearly identified. The book aims at researchers and graduate students in social media analysis, information retrieval, and machine learning applications.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 17th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web Graph, WAW 2020, held in Warsaw, Poland, in September 2020. The 12 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 19 submissions. The aim of the workshop was to further the understanding of graphs that arise from the Web and various user activities on the Web, and stimulate the development of high-performance algorithms and applications that exploit these graphs. Due to the corona pandemic the conference was postponed from June 2020 to September 2020.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web Graph, WAW 2023, held in Toronto, Canada, in May 23–26, 2023.The 12 Papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 21 submissions. The aim of the workshop was understanding of graphs that arise from the Web and various user activities on the Web, and stimulate the development of high-performance algorithms and applications that exploit these graphs.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 15th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web Graph, WAW 2018, held in Moscow, Russia in May 2018. The 11 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. The papers focus on topics like the information retrieval and data mining on the Web; Web as a text repository and as a graph, induced in various ways by link among pages, hosts and users; the understanding of graphs that arise from the Web and various user activities on the Web; stimulation of the development of high-performance algorithms and applications that exploit these graphs.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 16th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web Graph, WAW 2019, held in Brisbane, QLD, Australia, in July 2019. The 9 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 13 submissions. The papers cover topics of all aspects of algorithmic and mathematical research in the areas pertaining to the World Wide Web, espousing the view of complex data as networks.
This book contains the revised papers of the Fourth International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web-Graph. It covers a wide range of topics in the study of the Web-graph such as algorithms, PageRank analysis and computational as well as clustering.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Combinatorial Optimization and Applications, COCOA 2008, held in St. John's, Canada, in August 2008. The 44 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 84 submissions. The papers feature original research in the areas of combinatorial optimization -- both theoretical issues and and applications motivated by real-world problems thus showing convincingly the usefulness and efficiency of the algorithms discussed in a practical setting.
