Popularité

La popularité est une évaluation communautaire de chaque livre calculée sur une échelle de 0 à 100.

Cette évaluation repose sur une agrégation de diverses quantités qui reflètent la vie de chaque livre au sein de la communauté des lecteurs. Cette vie s'exprime en fréquence de lecture, nombre d'étagères publiques et privées dans lesquelles le livre est présent.

Un calcul 'propriétaire' mélangeant ces quantités restitue sous la forme synthétique d'un score l'aura collective du livre.

Solve challenging and computationally intensive analytics problems by leveraging network science and graph algorithms

Key Features

Book Description

We are living in the age of big data, and scalable solutions are a necessity. Network science leverages the power of graph theory and flexible data structures to analyze big data at scale. This book guides you through the basics of network science, showing you how to wrangle different types of data (such as spatial and time series data) into network structures. You’ll be introduced to core tools from network science to analyze real-world case studies in Python. As you progress, you’ll find out how to predict fake news spread, track pricing patterns in local markets, forecast stock market crashes, and stop an epidemic spread. Later, you’ll learn about advanced techniques in network science, such as creating and querying graph databases, classifying datasets with graph neural networks (GNNs), and mining educational pathways for insights into student success. Case studies in the book will provide you with end-to-end examples of implementing what you learn in each chapter. By the end of this book, you’ll be well-equipped to wrangle your own datasets into network science problems and scale solutions with Python.

What you will learn

Who this book is for

If you’re a researcher or industry professional analyzing data and are curious about network science approaches to data, this book is for you. To get the most out of the book, basic knowledge of Python, including pandas and NumPy, as well as some experience working with datasets is required. This book is also ideal for anyone interested in network science and learning how graph algorithms are used to solve science and engineering problems. R programmers may also find this book helpful as many algorithms also have R implementations.
