12月22-25日，悉尼科技大学徐贯东副教授（Reader)应邀访问实验室，并在计算机学院做了题为《Towards deep learning analytics based on cognitive modeling》的学术报告。

学术报告简介: 

The wide use of computer aided educational settings boosts the research in educational data mining and learning analytics. In this talk we are going to report our recent studies on deep learning analytics based on cognitive modelling. We propose a fuzzy cognitive diagnosis model to mine the specific skill proficiency of the examinees based on their performance of objective and subjective problem. We design a Bayesian network based method to detect “slip & guess” from examinees’ responses with the obtained skill proficiency. We study the gaming-the-system behaviour in intelligent tutoring systems and develop a framework that models student learning by combining the knowledge and gaming factor based on multiple-attempt responses.
