Transforming engineering problems through graph representations

Transforming engineering problems through graph representations

The paper introduces a general approach for solving engineering problems by transforming them to problems in other engineering fields, through general discrete mathematical models called graph representations. The idea of the method is first to raise the problem to an abstract mathematical level of graph representations. At that abstract level, either the solution is found through the tools of ...

Transforming Engineering Knowledge through Combinatorial Representations for Design

Transforming Graph Representations for Statistical Relational Learning

Relational data representations have become an increasingly important topic due to the recent proliferation of network datasets (e.g., social, biological, information networks) and a corresponding increase in the application of statistical relational learning (SRL) algorithms to these domains. In this article, we examine a range of representation issues for graph-based relational data. Since th...

Data Visualization through their Graph Representations

The amount of data and information collected and retained by organizations and businesses is constantly increasing, due to advances in data collection, computerization of transactions and breakthroughs in storage technology. Further, many attributes are also recorded, resulting in very high dimensional data sets. Typically, the applications involve large-scale information banks, such as data wa...
