About this Item

Neuware - What if the most important information in your data lies not in individual rows and columns, but in the connections between them Graph machine learning helps uncover patterns hidden in these relationships.Graph Machine Learning Essentials is a practical and accessible guide to understanding how machine learning works with graph-structured data, where entities are connected through relationships.Designed for software engineers, ML engineers, data scientists, research scholars, professionals, cybersecurity analysts, and students, the book introduces graph machine learning in a clear and structured way. It begins with the fundamentals of graph theory and moves into core graph learning tasks such as node classification, edge prediction, and graph classification. Readers learn how graphs are represented in data structures, how node and edge embeddings work, and why traditional machine learning approaches do not directly apply to graph data.The book gradually builds toward graph neural networks, message passing, and advanced GNN architectures while explaining practical challenges such as graph construction, scalability, oversmoothing, and over-squashing. Concepts are connected to real-world applications across domains such as recommender systems, fraud detection, cybersecurity, bioinformatics, transportation networks, and knowledge graphs.The book includes two helpful appendices-one reviewing essential machine learning concepts and the other introducing PyTorch Geometric to help readers get started quickly.After reading this book, you will be able to: - Understand key graph machine learning concepts and terminology- Implement graph neural networks using PyTorch Geometric- Work on real-world graph learning problems across industries- Handle practical challenges such as large graphs and oversmoothing.
