This book focusses on recommendation, behavior, and anomaly, among of social media analysis. First, recommendation is vital for a variety of applications to narrow down the search space and to better guide people towards educated and personalized alternatives. In this context, the book covers supporting students, food venue, friend and paper recommendation to demonstrate the power of social media data analysis. Secondly, this book treats behavior analysis and understanding as important for a variety of applications, including inspiring behavior from discussion platforms, determining user choices, detecting following patterns, crowd behavior modeling for emergency evacuation, tracking community structure, etc. Third, fraud and anomaly detection have been well tackled based on social media analysis. This has is illustrated in this book by identifying anomalous nodes in a network, chasing undetected fraud processes, discovering hidden knowledge, detecting clickbait, etc. With this widecoverage, the book forms a good source for practitioners and researchers, including instructors and students.

This book is an excellent source of knowledge for readers interested in the latest developments in social network analysis and mining, particularly with applications in healthcare and anomaly detection. It covers topics such as sensitivity to noise in features, enhancing fraud detection in financial systems, measuring the echo-chamber phenomenon, detecting comorbidity, and evaluating the effectiveness of mitigative and preventative actions on viral spread in small communities using agent-based stochastic simulations. Additionally, it discusses predicting behavior, measuring and identifying influence, analyzing the impact of COVID-19 on various social aspects, and using UNet for handling various skin conditions.

This book helps readers develop their own perspectives on adapting social network concepts to various applications. It also demonstrates how to use various machine learning techniques for tackling challenges in social network analysis and mining.

This book is a timely collection of chapters that present the state of the art within the analysis and application of big data. Working within the broader context of big data, this text focuses on the hot topics of social network modelling and analysis such as online dating recommendations, hiring practices, and subscription-type prediction in mobile phone services. 

Manuscripts are expanded versions of the best papers presented at the IEEE/ACM International Conference on Advances in Social Networks Analysis and Mining (ASONAM’2016), which was held in August 2016.
