Mathematics of Discrete Structures for Computer Science

This book covers computational group theory (CGT), an active, rapidly expanding field at the interface of mathematics and computer science. It is the first systematic effort to establish computing wit

Network flow theory has been used across a number of disciplines, including theoretical computer science, operations research, and discrete math, to model not only problems in the transportation of goods and information, but also a wide range of applications from image segmentation problems in computer vision to deciding when a baseball team has been eliminated from contention. This graduate text and reference presents a succinct, unified view of a wide variety of efficient combinatorial algorithms for network flow problems, including many results not found in other books. It covers maximum flows, minimum-cost flows, generalized flows, multicommodity flows, and global minimum cuts and also presents recent work on computing electrical flows along with recent applications of these flows to classical problems in network flow theory.

Linear algebra permeates mathematics,perhaps more so than any other single subject.It plays an essential role in pure and applied mathematics,statistics,computer science,and many aspects of physics and engineering.This book conveys in a user-friendly way the basic and advanced techniques of linear algebra from the point of view of a working analyst.The techniques are illustrated by a wide sample of applications and examples that are chosen to highlight the tools of the trade.In short,this is material that many of us wish we had been taught as graduate students.Roughly the first third of the book covers the basic material of a first course in linear algebra.The remaining chapters are devoted to applications drawn from vector calculus,numerical analysis,control theory,complex analysis,convexity and functional analysis.In particular,fixed point theorems,extremal problems,matrix equations,zero location and eigenvalue location problems,and matrices with nonnegative entries are discussed.App

Many machine learning algorithms require real-valued feature vectors of data instances as inputs. By projecting data into vector spaces, representation learning techniques have achieved promising performance in many areas such as computer vision and natural language processing. There is also a need to learn representations for discrete relational data, namely networks or graphs. Network Embedding (NE) aims at learning vector representations for each node or vertex in a network to encode the topologic structure. Due to its convincing performance and efficiency, NE has been widely applied in many network applications such as node classification and link prediction.This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the basic concepts, models, and applications of network representation learning (NRL). The book starts with an introduction to the background and rising of network embeddings as a general overview for readers. Then it introduces the development of NE techniques by presenting se
