Description

Tangles offer a precise way to identify structure in imprecise data. By grouping qualities that often occur together, they not only reveal clusters of things but also types of their qualities: types of political views, of texts, of health conditions, or of proteins. Tangles offer a new, structural, approach to artificial intelligence that can help us understand, classify, and predict complex phenomena. This has become possible by the recent axiomatization of the mathematical theory of tangles, which has made it applicable far beyond its origin in graph theory: from clustering in data science and machine learning to predicting customer behaviour in economics; from DNA sequencing and drug development to text and image analysis. Such applications are explored here for the first time. Assuming only basic undergraduate mathematics, the theory of tangles and its potential implications are made accessible to scientists, computer scientists, and social scientists.

Discover how the theory of tangles identifies types of qualities in data sets, offering a structural approach to artificial intelligence.

About the Author
Reinhard Diestel is Chair of Discrete Mathematics at Universitat Hamburg, where he works on structural graph theory and combinatorics. He is the author of the leading graduate-level text 'Graph Theory' (6th edition, 2024), which has been translated into German, Russian, Japanese, and Chinese.

Reviews
'As a sociologist, I am impressed by Diestel's innovative approach. Tangles open up completely new ways for empirical social research to gain insights that go beyond the usual generation of hypotheses and their verification or falsification. Tangles offer the opportunity to make the 'big sea of silent data' speak for itself.' Rolf von Lude, Universitat Hamburg

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
