This paper examines how humans judge the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) to evaluate human attributes, specifically focusing on two key dimensions of human social evaluation: morality and competence. Furthermore, it investigates the impact of exposure to advanced Large Language Models on these perceptions. In three studies (combined N…

Cheating detection in large-scale assessment received considerable attention in the extant literature. However, none of the previous studies in this line of research investigated the stacking ensemble machine learning algorithm for cheating detection. Furthermore, no study addressed the issue of class imbalance using resampling. This study…

The recommendation is an active area of scientific research; it is also a challenging and fundamental problem in online education. However, classical recommender systems usually suffer from item cold-start issues. Besides, unlike other fields like e-commerce or entertainment, e-learning recommendations must ensure that learners have the adequate…

This article introduces a novel method that integrates collaborative filtering into the naive Bayes model to enhance predicting student academic performance. The combined approach leverages collaborative user behavior analysis and probabilistic modeling, showing promising results in improved prediction precision. Collaborative Filtering explores…

The innovation capability largely determines the initiative for future development of a region. Higher school is the main position for training innovative talents. Accurate and comprehensive assessment of innovation cultivation capability is an important basis of higher schools for continuous improvement. Thus, this paper focuses on assessing…

In learnersourcing, automatic evaluation of student-generated content (SGC) is significant as it streamlines the evaluation process, provides timely feedback, and enhances the objectivity of grading, ultimately supporting more effective and efficient learning outcomes. However, the methods of aggregating students' evaluations of SGC face the…

Complex Machine Learning (ML) models used to support decision-making in peer-to-peer (P2P) lending often lack clear, accurate, and interpretable explanations. While the game-theoretic concept of Shapley values and its computationally efficient variant Kernel SHAP may be employed for this aim, similarly to other existing methods, the latter makes…

A significant body of recent research in the field of Learning Analytics has focused on leveraging machine learning approaches for predicting at-risk students in order to initiate timely interventions and thereby elevate retention and completion rates. The overarching feature of the majority of these research studies has been on the science of…

Cognitive diagnosis models (CDMs) are the assessment tools that provide valuable formative feedback about skill mastery at both the individual and population level. Recent work has explored the performance of CDMs with small sample sizes but has focused solely on the estimates of individual profiles. The current research focuses on obtaining…

Recently, deep learning has become a pervasive tool in prediction problems for structured and/or unstructured big data in various areas including science and engineering. In particular, deep neural network models (i.e. a basic core model of deep learning) can be viewed as an extension of statistical models by going through the incorporation of…

In recent years, online learning methods have gradually been accepted by more and more people. A large number of online teaching courses and other resources (MOOCs) have also followed. To attract students' interest in learning, many scholars have built recommendation systems for MOOCs. However, students need a variety of different learning…

In this article, we analyze the potential of conversational frameworks to support the adaptation of existing tutoring systems to a natural language form of interaction. We have based our research on a pilot study, in which the open-source machine learning framework Rasa has been used to build a conversational agent that interacts with an existing…

In order to study the big data of college students' employment, this paper takes the big data of college students' employment as the premise, analyzes the current employment data by establishing a DBN model, and puts forward relevant management measures, aiming to provide scientific basis for the management of graduates' employment data. The…

Online Judge (OJ) systems are typically considered within programming-related courses as they yield fast and objective assessments of the code developed by the students. Such an evaluation generally provides a single decision based on a rubric, most commonly whether the submission successfully accomplished the assignment. Nevertheless, since in an…

The automated classification of examination questions based on Bloom's Taxonomy (BT) aims to assist the question setters so that high-quality question papers are produced. Most studies to automate this process adopted the machine learning approach, and only a few utilised the deep learning approach. The pre-trained contextual and non-contextual…
