Visualization and visual analytics are powerful concepts for exploring data from various application domains. The endless number of possible parameters and the many ways to combine visual variables as well as algorithms and interaction techniques create lots of possibilities for building such techniques and tools. This book describes aspects from the interdisciplinary field of visual analytics, but also discusses more general approaches from the field of visualization as well as algorithms and data handling. A major part of the book covers research on those aspects under the light and perspective of eye tracking, building synergy effects between both fields -- eye tracking and visual analytics -- in both directions, i.e. eye tracking applied to visual analytics and visual analytics applied to eye tracking data. Powerful concepts for data analysis have been developed in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), and more and more have also found their way to the field of eye tracking.

The field of graph neural networks (GNNs) has seen rapid and incredible strides over the recent years. Graph neural networks, also known as deep learning on graphs, graph representation learning, or geometric deep learning, have become one of the fastest-growing research topics in machine learning, especially deep learning. This wave of research at the intersection of graph theory and deep learning has also influenced other fields of science, including recommendation systems, computer vision, natural language processing (NLP), inductive logic programming, program synthesis, software mining, automated planning, cybersecurity, and intelligent transportation. This book provides a comprehensive introduction of GNNs. It first discusses the goals of graph representation learning and then reviews the history, current developments, and future directions of GNNs. The second part presents and reviews fundamental methods and theories concerning GNNs while the third part describes various frontiers that are built on the GNNs. The book concludes with an overview of recent developments in a number of applications using GNNs.

In this book the author presents some techniques for exploring trees and graphs. He illustrates the linear search technique and the backtracking technique, and as instances of tree exploration methods he presents various algorithms for parsing subclasses of context-free languages. He also illustrates some tree and graph exploration and manipulation methods by presenting, among others, algorithms for visiting trees, evaluating Boolean expressions, proving propositional formulas, computing paths in graphs, and performing string matching. This book has been used for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses on automata and formal languages, and assumes some prior exposure to the basic notions in that area. Sample programs are presented in Java and Prolog.

Modern Data Science with R is a comprehensive data science textbook for undergraduates that incorporates statistical and computational thinking to solve real-world data problems. Rather than focus exclusively on case studies or programming syntax, this book illustrates how statistical programming in the state-of-the-art R/RStudio computing environment can be leveraged to extract meaningful information from a variety of data in the service of addressing compelling questions. The second edition is updated to reflect the growing influence of the tidyverse set of packages. All code in the book has been revised and styled to be more readable and easier to understand. New functionality from packages like sf, purrr, tidymodels, and tidytext is now integrated into the text. All chapters have been revised, and several have been split, re-organized, or re-imagined to meet the shifting landscape of best practice.

WebAssembly – это быстрая компактная межплатформенная технология, которая оптимизирует производительность ресурсоемких веб-приложений и программ. В книге подробно рассматриваются принципы ее работы; показано, в каких случаях можно ее использовать, а в каких делать этого не стоит, и как создавать и развертывать приложения на основе WebAssembly. Вначале вы узнаете, как оптимизировать и компилировать низкоуровневый код, отлаживать и оценивать WebAssembly, а также представлять код в удобном для прочтения текстовом формате WebAssembly Text (WAT). Затем вы сможете создать программу обнаружения столкновений на базе браузера, поработать с технологиями рендеринга в браузере для создания графики и анимации, а также выяснить, как Web-Assembly взаимодействует с другими языками программирования. Эта книга поможет вам разобраться в основах мощной технологии WebAssembly и повысить производительность ваших веб-приложений.
