This paper presents a brief review of early learner modelling in Intelligent Tutoring Systems focusing particularly on procedural knowledge representations vs. declarative knowledge representations. It then tracks the paradigm shift from traditional learner modelling, which emphasises knowledge representation, to distributed learner modelling, which focuses on the modelling process. Learner mod...

Modelling has become an invaluable tool in many areas of research, particularly in the control community where it is termed system identification. System identification is the process of identifying a model of an unknown process, for the purpose of predicting and/or gaining an insight into the behaviour of the process. Due to the inherent complexity of many real processes (i.e multivariate, non...

Configurable products are an important way to achieve mass-customisation to satisfy individual customer requirements. We describe a novel configurator prototype that supports tailoring, i.e. configuring, such a product. It contains a semi-visual modelling tool based on a high-level objectand product structure-oriented modelling language with a clear formal semantics. The main functionality is d...

Hydrogen (H2) energy is an ideal non-polluting renewable and can achieve long-term storage, which effectively regulate the intermittence seasonal fluctuation of solar energy. Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) generate electricity from H2 with only outputs water, waste heat, almost no pollution. To solve power generation instability discontinuity photovoltaic (PV) systems, a hybrid PV-SOFC system ha...

Abstract Motivation to engage in learning is essential for performance. Learners’ motivation traditionally assessed using self-reported data, which time-consuming, subjective, and interruptive their process. To address this issue, paper proposes a novel framework multimodal assessment of learners’ e-learning environments with the ultimate purpose supporting intelligent systems facilitate dynami...
