4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent treatise on applied combinatorics.
This book is an excellent resource for mathematicians, computer scientists, and engineers. The book shows how to use zero-one matrices and stochastic matrices in your work. The text pretty shows a lot of interesting properties different matrices have and how to compute various values associated with graphs from them. The book would be very useful for people...

1.0 out of 5 stars dense monograph
Sadly the authors have opted for a level
of abstraction that obscures many of the
beautiful details. Particularly disappointing
is the last chapter on matrix theory which veers
off into an odd mixture of marginalia which have
almost no applications.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent treatise on applied combinatorics., October 21, 1999
This review is from: Combinatorial Matrix Theory (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications) (Hardcover)
This book is an excellent resource for mathematicians, computer scientists, and engineers. The book shows how to use zero-one matrices and stochastic matrices in your work. The text pretty shows a lot of interesting properties different matrices have and how to compute various values associated with graphs from them. The book would be very useful for people interested in Neural Networks, Speech Recognition, Artificial Intelligence. It is mathematics, though and it describes the properties of the matrices and contains many proofs about these properties. Make sure that you have mastered linear algebra and combinatorics before reading this text.
