We propose a generative mixture model classifier that allows for the class conditional densities to be represented by mixtures having certain subsets of their components shared or common among classes. We argue that, when the total number of mixture components is kept fixed, the most efficient classification model is obtained by appropriately determining the sharing of components among class co...

. More and more people choose to obtain news online in today’s world. However, in recent times, there exists many fake claims on web. Rumor detection has been a popular topic. Recent search on truth discovery still doesn’t satisfy the realistic requirments now. As most of them focus on structured data, others proposed a new method to detect fake news with unstructured data. That is combine sour...

introduction: one of the most significant elements of entrepreneurship curriculum design is teaching-learning methods, which plays a key role in studies and researches related to such a curriculum. it is the teaching method, and systematic, organized and logical ways of providing lessons that should be consistent with entrepreneurship goals and contents, and should also be developed according t...

The continued and increasing use of online asynchronous learning (OAL) environments for training raises the question whether and to what extent behavior modeling, the most effective training method in live instruction, will prove to be effective in OAL environments. This article analyzes the effect of applying behavior modeling training in an OAL environment. Behavior modeling training can be d...

It can be argued that although computer science may seem one of the best researched areas, it could also be one of the worst taught. In this research we examine the residual problems in traditional teaching methods, and how the same problems have re-occurred in web-based education. We cite the lack of a cognitive model for learning programming as the primary reason for this weakness, and discus...

P.E. teaching evaluation system is an important mean and method to measure the general proficiency of P.E. teachers teaching profession. Traditional evaluation method is highly influenced by subjective factors and is not able to reflect teachers’ practical level factually. This study builds a P.E. teaching evaluation model based on analytic hierarchy process. The results show that the weight of...

There is a need to improve construction management students spatial and visualization skills. The growing use of 3-D models, typically referred to as building information modeling (BIM) highlights the importance of this form of communication. As students learning styles change new teaching methods are needed to deliver course content in a manner that reaches the student. The use of 3-D models i...

Based on the analysis of the advantages of teaching model in the network environment, three teaching models based on multimedia and network environment, i.e. the teaching model of giving priority of lecturing, the teaching model of giving priority of independent learning and the teaching model of group learning, are discussed in the article, and the problems which should be emphasized to utiliz...
