The Georgia Institute of Technology has been a catalyst for economic growth in the Southeast United States since its founding in 1885. Over the past 30 years, it has become known as one of the top technological universities in the world. As part of a strategic planning effort in mid2009, it sought to strengthen its thought leadership and impact through the implementation of a global innovation ...

Deep Thought is a logic tutor where students practice constructing deductive logic proofs. Within Deep Thought is a data-driven mastery learning system (DDML), which calculates student proficiency based on rule scores weighted by expert-decided weights in order to assign problem sets of appropriate difficulty. In this study, we designed and tested a data-driven proficiency profiler (DDPP) metho...

We describe the “Deep Thought” algorithm, which can, among other things, take a commutator presentation for a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group G, and produce explicit polynomials for the multiplication of elements of G. These polynomials were first shown to exist by Philip Hall, and allow for “symbolic collection” in finitely generated nilpotent groups. We discuss various practic...

We propose a novel extension of the encoder-decoder framework, called a review network. The review network is generic and can enhance any existing encoderdecoder model: in this paper, we consider RNN decoders with both CNN and RNN encoders. The review network performs a number of review steps with attention mechanism on the encoder hidden states, and outputs a thought vector after each review s...

When developing an intelligent tutoring system, it is necessary to have a significant number of highly varied problems that adapt to a student’s individual learning style. In developing an intelligent tutor for logic proof construction, selecting problems for individual students that effectively aid their progress can be difficult, since logic proofs require knowledge of a number of concepts an...

education and edification has always been one of the major concerns of mankind and has occupied his mind. undoubtedly, providing successful models is the basic needs of the parents and educators in this field. concentrating on educational approaches has an important place in edifiying issues; since it shows the process of edifiying.the purpose of this research is introducing the fundamentals of...

Twenty minutes ago at school, eight–year-old Brian ate what he thought was a butterscotch cookie. It turns out it was made from peanut butter, and Brian has a history of peanut allergy. He is brought in by a basic life support ambulance and is complaining of severe itching. He’s screaming, “It’s hard to breathe!” Vital signs: Blood pressure 90/40 mm Hg, heart rate 120 beats per minute, respirat...
