The book discusses the emerging paradigm of graph data science in detail along with its practical research and real-world applications. Readers will be enriched with the knowledge of graph data science, graph analytics, algorithms, databases, platforms, and use cases across a variety of research and topics and applications. This book also presents how graphs are used as a programming language, especially demonstrating how Sleptsov Net Computing can contribute as an entirely graphical concurrent processing language for supercomputers. Graph data science is emerging as an expressive and illustrative data structure for optimally representing a variety of data types and their insightful relationships. These data structures include graph query languages, databases, algorithms, and platforms. From here, powerful analytics methods and machine learning/deep learning (ML/DL) algorithms are quickly evolving to analyze and make sense out of graph data. As a result, ground-breaking use cases across scientific research topics and industry verticals are being developed using graph data representation and manipulation. A wide range of complex business and scientific research requirements are efficiently represented and solved through graph data analysis, and Applied Graph Data Science: Graph Algorithms and Platforms, Knowledge Graphs, Neural Networks, and Applied Graph Data Science gives readers both the conceptual foundations and technical methods for applying these powerful techniques.

      Probability for Deep Learning Quantum provides readers with the first book to address probabilistic methods in the deep learning environment and the quantum technological area simultaneously, by using a common platform: the Many-Sorted Algebra (MSA) view. While machine learning is created with a foundation of probability, probability is at the heart of quantum physics as well. It is the cornerstone in quantum applications. These applications include quantum measuring, quantum information theory, quantum communication theory, quantum sensing, quantum signal processing, quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and quantum machine learning. Although some of the probabilistic methods differ in machine learning disciplines from those in the quantum technologies, many techniques are very similar.Probability is introduced in the text rigorously, in Komogorov’s vision. It is however, slightly modified by developing the theory in a Many-Sorted Algebra setting. This algebraic construct is also used in showing the shared structures underlying much of both machine learning and quantum theory. Both deep learning and quantum technologies have several probabilistic and stochastic methods in common. These methods are described and illustrated using numerous examples within the text. Concepts in entropy are provided from a Shannon as well as a von-Neumann view. Singular value decomposition is applied in machine learning as a basic tool and presented in the Schmidt decomposition. Besides the in-common methods, Born’s rule as well as positive operator valued measures are described and illustrated, along with quasi-probabilities. Author Charles R. Giardina provides clear and concise explanations, accompanied by insightful and thought-provoking visualizations, to deepen your understanding and enable you to apply the concepts to real-world scenarios.

      Agent-Based Models with MATLAB introduces Agent-Based Modeling (ABM), one of the most important methodologies for complex systems modeling. The book explores computational implementations and accompanying MATLAB software code as a means of inspiring readers to apply agent-based models to solve a diverse range of problems. It comes with a large amount of software code that accompanies the main text, and the modeling systems described in the book are implemented using MATLAB as the programming language. Despite the heavy mathematical components of Agent-Based Models and complex systems, it is possible to utilize these models without in-depth understanding of their mathematical fundamentals.This book enables computer scientists, mathematicians, researchers, and engineers to apply ABM in a wide range of research and engineering applications. It gradually advances from basic to more advanced methods while reinforcing complex systems through practical, hands-on applications of various computational models.

      Fixed Point Optimization Algorithms and Their Applications discusses how the relationship between fixed point algorithms and optimization problems is connected and demonstrates hands-on applications of the algorithms in fields such as image restoration, signal recovery, and machine learning. The book is divided into nine chapters beginning with foundational concepts of normed linear spaces, Banach spaces, and Hilbert spaces, along with nonlinear operators and useful lemmas and theorems for proving the book’s main results. The author presents algorithms for nonexpansive and generalized nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert space, and presents solutions to many optimization problems across a range of scientific research and real-world applications. From foundational concepts, the book proceeds to present a variety of optimization algorithms, including fixed point theories, convergence theorems, variational inequality problems, minimization problems, split feasibility problems, variational inclusion problems, and equilibrium problems. Fixed Point Optimization Algorithms and Their Applications equips readers with the theoretical mathematics background and necessary tools to tackle challenging optimization problems involving a range of algebraic methods, empowering them to apply these techniques in their research, professional work, or academic pursuits.
