Overview

With the recent ?ourishing research activities on Web search and mining, social networkanalysis, informationnetworkanalysis, informationretrieval, linkana- sis, andstructuraldatamining, researchonlinkmininghasbeenrapidlygrowing, forminganew'eldofdatamining. Traditionaldataminingfocuseson"?at"or"isolated"datainwhicheachdata objectisrepresentedasanindependentattributevector. However, manyreal-world data sets are inter-connected, much richer in structure, involving objects of h- erogeneoustypesandcomplexlinks. Hence, thestudyoflinkminingwillhavea highimpactonvariousimportantapplicationssuchasWebandtextmining, social networkanalysis, collaborative'ltering, andbioinformatics. Asanemergingresearch'eld, therearecurrentlynobooksfocusingonthetheory andtechniquesaswellastherelatedapplicationsforlinkmining, especiallyfrom aninterdisciplinarypointofview. Ontheotherhand, duetothehighpopularity oflinkagedata, extensiveapplicationsrangingfromgovernmentalorganizationsto commercial businesses to people's daily life call for exploring the techniques of mininglinkagedata.
