Preventing Student Dropout in Distance Learning Using Machine Learning Techniques
Student dropout occurs quite often in universities providing distance education. The scope of this research is to study whether the usage of machine learning techniques can be useful in dealing with this problem. Subsequently, an attempt was made to identifying the most appropriate learning algorithm for the prediction of students' dropout. A number of experiments have taken place with data pro...
متن کاملthe relationship between locus of control and iranian efl university students’ beliefs about language learning
this exploratory study aimed to investigate a possible relationship between learners’ beliefs about language learning and one of their personality traits; that is,locus of control (loc). both variables, beliefs and locus of control, are assumed to influence the language learning process. the internal control index (ici) and the beliefs about language learning inventory (balli) were administered...
Machine Learning Techniques for Analyzing Training Behavior in Serious Gaming
Training time is a costly, scarce resource across domains such as commercial aviation, healthcare, and military operations. In the context of military applications, serious gaming – the training of warfighters through immersive, realtime environments rather than traditional classroom lectures – offers benefits to improve training not only in its hands-on development and application of knowledge...
متن کاملPersistence Diagrams with Linear Machine Learning Models
Persistence diagrams have been widely recognized as a compact descriptor for characterizing multiscale topological features in data. When many datasets are available, statistical features embedded in those persistence diagrams can be extracted by applying machine learnings. In particular, the ability for explicitly analyzing the inverse in the original data space from those statistical features...
متن کاملWhen Training and Test Sets are Different: Characterising Learning Transfer
In this chapter, a number of common forms of dataset shift are introduced, and each is related to a particular form of causal probabilistic model. Examples are given for the different types of shift, and some corresponding modelling approaches. By characterising dataset shift in this way, there is potential for the development of models which capture the specific types of variations, combine di...
