Modeling the Internet and the Web
Probabilistic Methods and Algorithms
von Pierre Baldi, Paolo Frasconi und Padhraic SmythModeling the Internet and the Web covers the most important aspectsof modeling the Web using a modern mathematical and probabilistictreatment. It focuses on the information and application layers, aswell as some of the emerging properties of the Internet.
* Provides a comprehensive introduction to the modelingof the Internet and the Web at the information level. * Takes a modern approach based on mathematical, probabilistic, and graphical modeling. * Provides an integrated presentation of theory, examples, exercises and applications. * Covers key topics such as text analysis, link analysis, crawling techniques, human behaviour, and commerce on the Web.
Interdisciplinary in nature, Modeling the Internet and the Webwill be of interest to students and researchers from a variety ofdisciplines including computer science, machine learning, engineering, statistics, economics, business, and the socialsciences.
