Probabilistic modelling allows many of these regularities to be predicted on the basis of theoretical models based on statistical methodology. Among these applications are data mining and bioinformatics. This text has been designed to fill a specific niche and covers the most important aspects of the Internet at the information level using a modern unified mathematical/probabilistic/graphical models/machine learning treatment. The book does not deal with the physical layer, or the protocol layer of the Internet. Rather, it focuses on the information and application layers, as well as some of the emerging properties of the Internet. 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a004.678 700 $aBaldi$b Pierre$0282482 702 $aFrasconi$b Paolo 702 $aSmyth$b Padhraic 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910143228303321 996 $aModeling the Internet and the Web: Probabilistic Methods and Algorithms$92279465 997 $aUNINA
