Adaptive Reward Mechanism for Sustainable Online Learning Community
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abundance of user contributions does not necessarily indicate sustainability of an online community. On the contrary, excessive contributions in the systems may result in information overload and user withdrawal. We propose a userand communityadaptive reward mechanism aiming to regulate the quantity of the contributions and encourage users to moderate the quality of contributions themselves. The mechanism has been applied and evaluated in an online community supporting undergraduate students to share course-related web-resources.

A New Fuzzy Stabilizer Based on Online Learning Algorithm for Damping of Low-Frequency Oscillations
A multi objective Honey Bee Mating Optimization (HBMO) designed by online learning mechanism is proposed in this paper to optimize the double Fuzzy-Lead-Lag (FLL) stabilizer parameters in order to improve low-frequency oscillations in a multi machine power system. The proposed double FLL stabilizer consists of a low pass filter and two fuzzy logic controllers whose parameters can be set by the ...
متن کاملUser- and Community-Adaptive Rewards Mechanism for Sustainable Online Community
Abundance of user contributions does not necessarily indicate sustainability of an online community. On the contrary, excessive contributions in the systems may result in “information overload” and user withdrawal. We propose an adaptive rewards mechanism aiming to restrict the quantity of the contributions, elicit contributions with higher quality and simultaneously inhibit inferior ones. The ...
متن کاملMini/Micro-Grid Adaptive Voltage and Frequency Stability Enhancement Using Q-learning Mechanism
This paper develops an adaptive control method for controlling frequency and voltage of an islanded mini/micro grid (M/µG) using reinforcement learning method. Reinforcement learning (RL) is one of the branches of the machine learning, which is the main solution method of Markov decision process (MDPs). Among the several solution methods of RL, the Q-learning method is used for solving RL in th...
متن کاملAdaptive Step-size Policy Gradients with Average Reward Metric
In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive step-size approach for policy gradient reinforcement learning. A new metric is defined for policy gradients that measures the effect of changes on average reward with respect to the policy parameters. Since the metric directly measures the effects on the average reward, the resulting policy gradient learning employs an adaptive step-size strategy that ...
متن کاملDesigning Adaptive Engagement Approaches for Audience-bounded Online Communities
Audience-bounded online communities require innovative user engagement techniques. Without special efforts focusing on engagement, the contribution volume will likely to be insufficient to maintain a sustainable community-driven system. This paper presents an adaptive approach for user engagement that aims to apply alternative engagement strategies to users with different behavior in the online...
