چکیده

We introduce R-PFA, a new model for predicting whether or not a student will answer an item correctly based on the student’s history of practice. The key idea in R-PFA is to represent history as a recentcy-weighted proportion of correct responses. In an evaluation on a dataset from the Assistments tutoring system, we find that R-PFA improves predictive accuracy over other logistic regression model variants, including PFA and AFM.

Development of Data Envelopment Analysis for the Performance Evaluation of Green Supply Chain with Undesirable Outputs

A fundamental problem is the use of DEA in multistep or multilevel processes such as supply chain, lack of attention to processes’ internal communications in a way that the recent studies on DEA in the context of serial processes have focused on closed systems that the outputs of one level become the inputs of the next level and none of the inputs enter the mediator process. The present study a...

Convergent Validity of a Student Model: Recent-Performance Factors Analysis

Models of student performance can incorporate a skill decomposition that lists the skills that each activity requires. A good model must be sensitive to improvements in skill decomposition. We validate the Recent-Performance Factors Analysis model of student performance by checking its sensitivity to the skill decomposition. We use a dataset from a tutoring system where the skill model has been...
