Lecture on backpropagation based on book presentation in Chapter 2 (provides a somewhat different approach to explaining it than you would normally see in textbooks):
This is the second edition of the popular neural networks and deep learning textbook. The book discusses the theory and algorithms of deep learning. The theory and algorithms of neural networks are particularly important for understanding important concepts in deep learning, so that one can understand the important design concepts of neural architectures in different applications. Why do neural networks work? When do they work better than off-the-shelf machine learning models? When is depth useful? Why is training neural networks so hard? What are the pitfalls? Even though the book is not implementation-oriented, it is rich in discussing different applications. Applications associated with many different areas like recommender systems, machine translation, captioning, image classification, graph neural networks, reinforcement-learning based gaming, and text analytics are covered. The second edition is a significant update over the first edition, with material on graph neural networks, attention mechanisms, adversarial learning, attention mechanisms, transformers, and large language models. All chapters have been revised sigificantly. Detailed chapters on backpropogation and graph neural networks were added. The following aspects are covered in the book:
The basics of neural networks: Chapters 1, 2, and 3 discuss the basics of neural network design and also the fundamentals of training them. The simulation of various machine learning models with neural networks is provided. Examples include least-squares regression, SVMs, logistic regression, Widrow-Hoff learning, singular value decomposition, and recommender systems. Recent models like word2vec are also explored, together with their connections with traditional matrix factorization. Exploring the interface between machine learning and neural networks is important because it provides a deeper understanding of how neural networks generalize known machine learning methods, and the cases in which neural networks have advantages over traditional machine learning.
Challenges in training neural networks: Although Chapters 1 and 2 provide an overview of the training methods for neural networks, a more detailed understanding of the training challenges is provided in Chapters 4 and 5. In particular, issues related to network depth and also overfitting are discussed. Chapter 6 presents a classical architecture, referred to as radial-basis function networks. Even though this architecture is no longer used frequently, it is important because it represents a direct generalization of the kernel support-vector machine.
Advanced architectures and applications: A lot of the success in neural network design is a result of the specialized architectures for various domains and applications. Examples of such specialized architectures include recurrent neural networks and convolutional neural networks. Since the specialized architectures form the key to the understanding of neural network performance in various domains, most of the book will be devoted to this setting. Several advanced topics like deep reinforcement learning, neural Turing mechanisms, and generative adversarial networks are discussed.
Some of the ``forgotten'' architectures like RBF networks and Kohonen self-organizing maps are included because of their potential in many applications. The book is written for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners. The book does require knowledge of probability and linear algebra. Furthermore basic knowledge of machine learning is helpful. Numerous exercises are available along with a solution manual to aid in classroom teaching. Where possible, an application-centric view is highlighted in order to give the reader a feel for the technology.

This book covers machine learning techniques from text using both bag-of-words and sequence-centric methods. The scope of coverage is vast, and it includes traditional information retrieval methods and also recent methods from neural networks and deep learning. The chapters of this book can be organized into three categories:
Classical machine learning methods: These chapters discuss the classical machine learning methods such as matrix factorization, topic modeling, dimensionality reduction, clustering, classification, linear models, and evaluation. All these techniques treat text as a bag of words. Contextual learning methods that combine different types of text and also combine text with heterogeneous data types are covered.
Classical information retrieval and search engines: Although this book is focussed on text mining, the importance of retrieval and ranking methods in mining applications is quite significant. Therefore, the book covers the key aspects of information retrieval, such as data structures, Web ranking, crawling, and search engine design. Importance is given to different types of information retrieval scoring models and learning-to-rank techniques.
Sequence-centric, deep learning, and linguistic methods for mining: While the bag-of-words representation can be useful for traditional applications like classification and clustering, more advanced applications like machine translation, image captioning, opinion mining, information extraction, and text segmentation require one to treat text as a sequence. These chapters discuss methods for sequence-centric mining methods such as deep learning techniques, word2vec, recurrent neural networks, LSTMs, maximum entropy Markov models, and Conditional Random Fields. Custom methods for applications like text summarization, opinion mining, and event detection are also discussed.
The book can be used as a textbook and it is numerous exercises. However, it is also designed to be useful to researchers and industrial practitioners. It therefore contains extensive bibliographic references for researchers, and the bibliographic section also contains software references for practitioners. Numerous examples and exercises have been provided.

This book covers the topic of recommender systems comprehensively, starting with the fundamentals and then exploring the advanced topics. The chapters of this book can be organized into three categories:
Algorithms and evaluation: These chapters discuss the fundamental algorithms in recommender systems, including collaborative filtering methods, content-based methods, knowledge-based methods, ensemble-based methods, and evaluation.
Recommendations in specific domains and contexts: The context of a recommendation can be viewed as important side information that affects the recommendation goals. Different types of context such as temporal data, spatial data, social data, tagging data, and trustworthiness are explored.
Advanced topics and applications: Various robustness aspects of recommender systems, such as shilling systems, attack models, and their defenses are discussed. In addition, recent topics, such as multi-armed bandits, learning to rank, group systems, multi-criteria systems, and active learning systems, are discussed together with applications.
Although this book is primarily written as a textbook, it is recognized that a large portion of the audience will comprise industrial practitioners and researchers. Therefore, the book is also designed to be useful from an applied and reference point of view. Numerous examples and exercises have been provided.

NEW: DATA MINING: THE TEXTBOOK
Data Mining: The Textbook (Springer), Authored by Charu Aggarwal, April 2015. -- Comprehensive textbook on data mining.
Book page with book description, solution manual, and other resources
The emergence of data science as a discipline requires the development of a book that goes beyond the traditional focus of books on fundamental data mining problems. More emphasis needs to be placed on the advanced data types such as text, time series, discrete sequences, spatial data, graph data, and social networks. This comprehensive data mining book explores the different aspects of data mining, starting from the fundamentals, and subsequently explores the complex data types and their applications. Therefore, this book may be used for both introductory and advanced data mining courses. The chapters of this book fall into one of three categories:
The fundamental chapters: Data mining has four main problems, which correspond to clustering, classification, association pattern mining, and outlier analysis. These chapters comprehensively discuss a wide variety of methods for these problems.
Domain chapters: These chapters discuss the specific methods used for different domains of data such as text data, time-series data, sequence data, graph data, and spatial data.
Application chapters: These chapters study important applications such as stream mining, Web mining, ranking, recommendations, social networks, and privacy preservation. The domain chapters also have an applied flavor.
The book carefully balances mathematical details and intuition. It contains the necessary mathematical details for professors and researchers, but it is presented in a simple and intuitive style to improve accessibility for students and industrial practitioners. Numerous illustrations, examples, and exercises are included with an emphasis on semantically interpretable examples.

OUTLIER ANALYSIS: Second Edition (2017)
Outlier Analysis (Springer) Authored by Charu Aggarwal, 2017. Comprehensive text book on outlier analysis, including examples and exercises for classroom teaching. Most of the previous books on outlier detection were written by statisticians for statisticians, with little or no coverage from the data mining and computer science perspective. This book is intended to fill that gap. Each chapter contains key research content on the topic, case studies, extensive bibliographic notes and the future direction of research in this field. Includes exercises as well.
Covers applications for credit card fraud, network intrusion detection, law enforcement etc.
Content is simplified so students and practitioners can also benefit from this book.
Chapters will typically cover one of three areas: methods and techniques commonly used in outlier analysis, such as linear methods, proximity-based methods, subspace methods, and supervised methods; data domains, such as, text, categorical, mixed-attribute, time-series, streaming, discrete sequence, spatial and network data; and key applications of these methods as applied to diverse domains such as credit card fraud detection, intrusion detection, medical diagnosis, earth science, web log analytics, and social network analysis. The second edition contains significant new material in one-class support vector machines, neural networks, matrix factorization, outlier ensembles, text outliers, and graph mining. It also has a solution manual to aid class room teaching.
The original (first edition) book had been selected among the Best publications of 2013 by ACM Computing Reviews.
