Aspire     Graph Analytics     Graph Analytics Track 3: Graph Data Science with Neo4j
This course will introduce you to several graph algorithms in Neo4j's Graph Data Science library and explore how you can apply these to different types of graphs.
You begin by building a little social network of people connected as friends. Then you will cover the steps involved in modeling friendships as undirected relationships in an in-memory graph and applying algorithms to this social network. You will use measures of centrality to identify highly connected nodes in a network. Next, you dive into community detection algorithms to find clusters of friends in a social network. From there, you will model a network as a graph with weighted edges then apply traversal algorithms on this graph, from finding shortest paths between nodes to breadth-first and depth-first traversals.
Finally, you get a glimpse into the FastRP algorithm to transform nodes in your graph to vectors with a specific number of dimensions.
After completing this course, you will know how to apply various graphic algorithms to extract meaningful information from a graph.
