Focusing only on a knowledge delivery problem in distant learning systems, we can find course material selection with relation to an education level of particular student as a main shortcoming. The other equally week point to the mention above is immense burden for the course administrators, when number of students exceeds a few dozen or so. Then the number of people involved in planning, contr...

The paper presents a complete (animation, simulation and internet-based measurement) multimedia educational program of DC servo system for distant learning. The animation program includes screens for teaching in class and for individual study as well. The final and most important step in any kind of education in the field engineering is the measurement. This is the most challenging step in dist...

This paper studies the emotion classification task on microblogs. Given a message, we classify its emotion as happy, sad, angry or surprise. Existing methods mostly use the bag-of-word representation or manually designed features to train supervised or distant supervision models. However, manufacturing feature engines is time-consuming and not enough to capture the complex linguistic phenomena ...

Constructing an informative and discriminative graph plays an important role in the graph based semi-supervised learning methods. Among these graph construction methods, low-rank representation based graph, which calculates the edge weights of both labeled and unlabeled samples as the low-rank representation (LRR) coefficients, has shown excellent performance in semi-supervised learning. In thi...

Author focuses on three groups of problems: quality of distance learning and e-learning; necessity to develop the facilitation skills for teachers who work using distance learning technologies; realization of inclusive approach for the organization of distance learning in inclusive groups where people with disabilities study with people without any disabilities. The conclusions and main ideas o...

From its initial preoccupations : learning content layout and management, e-learning now concerns the whole process of knowledge transmission between distant people, e.g. taught resources and dependencies between them need to be described, educational activities must be planned, learners must be modelled and acquired knowledge must be qualified and quantified. Normalization institutes now provi...
