Lecture type(s) Practical Course
Content

This course covers basic graph and network algorithms with emphasis on applications. Important methods are presented for various applications, including network analysis, clustering of data, visualization of graphs, etc., and their implementation to the requirements of the corresponding application is discussed. This will be accompanied by a practical course. Topics include network analysis, pattern search, clustering, and graph drawing.

Objectives

In this module, students gain advanced knowledge in graph and network algorithms. They can formalize simple and also more difficult problems from different application areas and apply graph and network methods within the formal basics. (Simple) extensions of the basic methods can be designed and realized by the students independently.
