Abstract

Complex networks are graphs that model natural systems with nontrivial topology and dynamics. The topological properties and the evolution of these networks give information about the systems that they represent. This theory may be applied to solve machine learning tasks such as data classification. One example of dynamical learning mechanism in complex networks is the particle competition. Recently, an alternative particle competition scheme emphasizing the edge dynamics was proposed. This approach, called Edge Domination System, offers better understanding of the system behavior than the vertex dynamics. The objectives of the regular fellowship are developing, analyzing, and applying data classification techniques based on dynamical systems in complex networks. The internship abroad intends to enhance the mathematical background that is fundamental to investigate such systems. This research plan proposes to study, analyze and model dynamical systems emphasizing edge dynamics for data classification problems. (AU)
