Abstract

E-learning is the most sought after mode of self-learning amongst students and learners today. There is an undisputed requirement for dynamism and customized learning materials that augment a student's understanding of the subject. This paper proposes a comprehensive model based on deep learning by enabling the use of Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM) and Random Forest classification, thereby providing a highly personalized e-Learning system. The adaptive learning system would make use of a bidirected graph data structure that would comprise of various levels and phases. The structure and traversal of the graph are determined by the appropriate machine learning and deep learning algorithms. Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN) and Deep learning algorithms such as Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM) help in the identification of the learner style in accordance to the Felder and Silverman learning style modelling(FSLSM).Once the learner style has been determined, the model uses a Random Forest classifier that takes in a number of parameters including the assessment details of the students to return a prediction of the learner level which pertains to the difficulty of the course. The learner style and level, together would determine the adaptivity of the course. In such a mechanism, the e-Learning course would be adapted with respect to the abilities of the learner, thus allowing a superlative understanding of the course.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In [31], LSTM, random forest classification, and CNNs were used to create a deep learning model for a personalized e-learning system, with random forest predicting learner level and CNN identifying learner style.

    “The machine learning algorithms used in the article are long short-term memory (LSTM), random forest classification, and convolutional neural networks (CNNs).The method employed is the creation of a comprehensive model based on deep learning to provide a highly personalized e-learning system.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
