An Extension of Fuzzy Deformable Prototypes for predicting student performance on Web-based Tutoring Systems

چکیده
This paper presents an extension of Fuzzy Deformable Prototypes (FDPs) based on the use of interval type-2 fuzzy sets. The aim is to improve FDPs’ capabilities for managing uncertainty and imprecision. This extension is applied to predict the academic performance of the students who make use of Web-based tutoring systems. The prediction model contains patterns of behavior that are used to determine the future academic performance of new students based on their affinity with the prototypes previously discovered. Interval Type 2 Fuzzy Sets (IT2FS) were used to handle the imprecision of the academic data caused by the overlapping between the fuzzy representations of prototypes.

An Executive Approach Based On the Production of Fuzzy Ontology Using the Semantic Web Rule Language Method (SWRL)
Today, the need to deal with ambiguous information in semantic web languages is increasing. Ontology is an important part of the W3C standards for the semantic web, used to define a conceptual standard vocabulary for the exchange of data between systems, the provision of reusable databases, and the facilitation of collaboration across multiple systems. However, classical ontology is not enough ...

Predicting the wear performance of circular diamond saw in the process of sawing hard dimensional stone is an important step in reducing production costs in the stone sawing industry. In the present research work, the effective parameters on circular diamond saw wear are defined, and then the weight of each parameter is determined through adopting a fuzzy rock engineering system (Fuzzy RES) bas...
متن کاملProposal of a Document Cluster Representation based on Fuzzy Deformable Prototypes
In this paper it is described the use of Fuzzy Deformable Prototypes for representing clusters of documents. We use fuzzy logic technologies and a KDD based process for automatic classification of large repositories of documents in a fuzzy and hierarchical organization. The aim is to make an optimum exploitation of the concepts contained in the documents using an updateable and understandable s...
