A Data Driven Approach to the Discovery of Better Cognitive Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cognitive models composed of knowledge components are an integral part of intelligent tutors and drive many of the instructional decisions that these systems make. Most of these models are designed by educators and subject experts. Today vast amounts of data, collected from many intelligent tutors, allow us to analyze and improve the current cognitive models through educational data mining. In this research, we show how we identified, in the tutor data, potential improvements to existing cognitive models and then evaluated those improvements using statistical analysis and cross validation.

Improved Bayesian Training for Context-Dependent Modeling in Continuous Persian Speech Recognition
Context-dependent modeling is a widely used technique for better phone modeling in continuous speech recognition. While different types of context-dependent models have been used, triphones have been known as the most effective ones. In this paper, a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) estimation approach has been used to estimate the parameters of the untied triphone model set used in data-driven clust...
متن کاملZ-Cognitive Map: An Integrated Cognitive Maps and Z-Numbers Approach under Cognitive Information
Usually, in real-world engineering problems, there are different types of uncertainties about the studied variables, which can be due to the specific variables under investigation or interaction between them. Fuzzy cognitive maps, which addresses the cause-effect relation between variables, is one of the most common models for better understanding of the problems, especially when the quantitati...
