讲座人:Fang Zhou (Research fellow in Division of Computer Science at The University of Nottingham Ningbo China)讲座时间:2013.3.13 上午 10:00-11:00讲座地点:复旦大学张江校区计算机楼 305联系人:路红 honglu@fudan.edu.cnAbstract: he talk will focus on the Methods for Network Abstraction. The work is motivated by the growth of networks in many areas of life. Consider networks of thousands of genes, millions of people, or billions of web pages. They are too large to be directly analyzed by users. The aim of network abstraction is to summarize a large network as a smaller one. An abstracted network can then help users to see the overall topology of a large network, or to understand the connections of distant nodes. In this talk, I will introduce the research area of network abstraction, and present methods to solve some instances of the problem. Bio: Dr. Fang Zhou currently is a research fellow in Division of Computer Science at The University of Nottingham Ningbo China. She got her Ph.D. degree in Computer Science in 2012 from University of Helsinki, Finland. Her research interests include data mining, large-scale graph analysis, with applications in bioinformatics and multimedia.
