This textbook introduces the theoretical foundations of technologies essential for knowledge graphs. It also covers practical examples, applications and tools. Knowledge graphs are the most recent answer to the challenge of providing explicit knowledge about entities and their relationships by potentially integrating billions of facts from heterogeneous sources. The standard narrative about the recent history of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is that a combination of rapidly growing compute power and an immense increase in available data have caused a scaling explosion in AI that has led to the results in Machine Learning (ML) in the past decade. Indeed, this narrative is true, and the results of the ML explosion are clear for all to see, in the popular press, in scientific publications, and in real world applications, ranging from product recommendation to fraud detection and from chatbots to face recognition. What is rather less known to the general public, the popular press, and indeed in AI itself is that a similar scaling explosion has taken place in another area of AI. The main driver for this “other explosion” of size in AI has been the adoption of the knowledge graph model, combined with ontology languages that carefully balance expressivity against computational cost. Knowledge graphs now form the biggest knowledge bases ever built, and without a doubt, languages like RDF Schema and OWL are by far the most widely used knowledge representation languages in the history of AI. And these knowledge graphs have come of age. They are used in science, in public administration, in cultural heritage, in healthcare, and in a broad range of industries, ranging from manufacturing to financial services and from search engines to pharmaceuticals. This textbook is intended for graduate courses covering knowledge graphs. Besides students in knowledge graph, Semantic Web, database, or information retrieval classes, also advanced software developers for Web applications or tools for Web data management will learn about the foundations and appropriate methods.

Algorithms are ubiquitous in the contemporary technological world, and they ultimately consist of finite sequences of instructions used to accomplish tasks with necessary input values. This book analyses the top performing algorithms in areas as diverse as Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Optimization Techniques and Cloud & Cyber Security Systems in order to explore their power and limitations. Algorithms play a vital role in all sciences, especially in Computer Science. We are always in search of efficient algorithms that give the results in less amount of time and that consume less space for large input size. Cybersecurity and Big Data are two prominent areas of Computer Science, where the role of algorithms is vital. Algorithms provide the best security mechanism to protect the data from all types of attacks. There are several types of attacks such as threats to data safety, data security, and on the mechanisms to store and retrieve the data. Optimization is a common term used almost everywhere, including our daily life. This book comprises chapters on the study of different algorithms used in cybersecurity and Big Data, and also puts light on optimization methods used in Computer Science. A comparative study of different algorithms is also provided. This book is helpful to students, especially for those who work in areas of cybersecurity and Big Data.

For every exercise I did my best to connect the specific statistical concepts with R code, and every time I use linear algebra I connect it with a concrete R example. In this book you will not find something such as "this is left as an exercise to the reader". This book aims to get straight to the point, and the only thing I assume here is that you have used spreadsheets at some point and that you are motivated to estimate linear models in R. Here I do not assume that you know how to install R or the basics of the R programming language. This books contains no proofs. I tried to replace those with multiple examples consisting in analyzing my own experiments, such as throwing a tennis ball and measuring the time it takes to hit the ground from different heights, and another where I got two thermometers and measured the temperature outside a building at the same time of the day on different days.

MATLAB For Engineers starts at the beginning to introduce first-year engineering students to MATLAB. Starting with basic algebra, you'll learn how MATLAB can be used to solve a wide range of engineering problems. Examples taken from concepts presented in early chemistry, physics, and first- and second-year engineering classes are included. When the text covers new subjects, like statistics and matrix algebra, brief background information is used to support your success. As you work through hands-on examples and exercises, you'll learn to apply a consistent problem-solving methodology to help you reach a solution. The 6th Edition reflects the MATLAB software release R2021B. Updated screenshots, new data, new problems and discussions offer a current view of the coding language and platform you'll use in your classes and career. MATLAB is a “multiparadigm” programming language, which means it can be used in several different ways to perform programming tasks. Those tasks can range from something as simple as balancing your checkbook to complex engineering modeling applications. MATLAB is a versatile language, but it can’t do everything. It is a large application program designed to optimize mathematical calculations; number-crunching is where it shines. You wouldn’t want to use it to write a word-processing program, for example. If you wanted to write an operating system or design software, C ++, Java, or some other higher-level language would be a better choice. In fact, MATLAB was originally written in Fortran and then later rewritten in C.
