چکیده

Affect plays a vital role in learning. During tutoring, particular affective states may benefit or detract from student learning. A key cognitiveaffective state is confusion, which has been positively associated with effective learning. Although identifying episodes of confusion presents significant challenges, recent investigations have identified correlations between confusion and specific facial movements. This paper builds on those findings to create a predictive model of learner confusion during task-oriented human-human tutorial dialogue. The model leverages textual dialogue, task, and facial expression history to predict upcoming confusion within a hidden Markov modeling framework. Analysis of the model structure also reveals meaningful modes of interaction within the tutoring sessions. The results demonstrate that because of its predictive power and rich qualitative representation, the model holds promise for informing the design of affective-sensitive tutoring systems.

Due to the effective role of Markov models in customer relationship management (CRM), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. In this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. One hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying Markov models...

Predicting CpG Islands and Their Relationship with Genomic Feature in Cattle by Hidden Markov Model Algorithm

Cattle supply an important source of nutrition for humans in the world. CpG islands (CGIs) are very important and useful, as they carry functionally relevant epigenetic loci for whole genome studies. As a matter of fact, there have been no formal analyses of CGIs at the DNA sequence level in cattle genomes and therefore this study was carried out to fill the gap. We used hidden markov model alg...
