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

Key Features

Learn how to wrangle different types of datasets and analytics problems into networks
Leverage graph theoretic algorithms to analyze data efficiently
Apply your skills on a variety of hands-on problems through case studies in Python

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 readers through the basics of network science, shows them how to wrangle different types of data (such as spatial and time series data) into network structures, and introduces core tools from network science to analyze real-world case studies in Python. In the first sections, find out how to predict fake news spread, track pricing patterns in local markets, forecast stock market crashes, and stop epidemic spread. In the final section, learn about advanced tools in network science, such as creating and querying graph databases, classifying datasets with graph neural networks, and mining educational pathways for insight about student success. Case studies provide you with end-to-end examples of implementing what you learn in each chapter. By the end of the book, youll be well-equipped to wrangle your own datasets into network science problems and scale solutions with Python.
