Predicting Performance in an Introductory Programming Course by Logging and Analyzing Student Programming Behavior (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Watson, C., Li, F. W., & Godwin, J. L. (2013). Predicting Performance in an Introductory Programming Course by Logging and Analyzing Student Programming Behavior. In Proceedings of the 2013 IEEE 13th International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT 2013) (319-323). https://doi.org/10.1109/icalt.2013.99

The high failure rates of many programming courses means there is a need to identify struggling students as early as possible. Prior research has focused upon using a set of tests to assess the use of a student's demographic, psychological and cognit...

Generalizing Bounds on the Minimum Distance of Cyclic Codes Using Cyclic Product Codes (2013)
Conference Proceeding

Two generalizations of the Hartmann-Tzeng (HT) bound on the minimum distance of q-ary cyclic codes are proposed. The first one is proven by embedding the given cyclic code into a cyclic product code. Furthermore, we show that unique decoding up to th... Read More about Generalizing Bounds on the Minimum Distance of Cyclic Codes Using Cyclic Product Codes.

For a fixed graph H, the H-Minor Edit problem takes as input a graph G and an integer k and asks whether G can be modified into H by a total of at most k edge contractions, edge deletions and vertex deletions. Replacing edge contractions by vertex di... Read More about Graph editing to a fixed target.

A homomorphism from a graph G to a graph H is locally bijective, surjective, or injective if its restriction to the neighborhood of every vertex of G is bijective, surjective, or injective, respectively. We prove that the problems of testing whether... Read More about Locally Constrained Homomorphisms on Graphs of Bounded Treewidth and Bounded Degree.

Parameterized Complexity of Two Edge Contraction Problems with Degree Constraints (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Belmonte, R., Golovach, P., Hof, V. '. P., & Paulusma, D. (2013). Parameterized Complexity of Two Edge Contraction Problems with Degree Constraints.

Motivated by recent results of Mathieson and Szeider (J. Comput. Syst. Sci. 78(1): 179–191, 2012), we study two graph modification problems where the goal is to obtain a graph whose vertices satisfy certain degree constraints. The Regular Contraction...

A colouring of a graph G = (V;E) is a mapping c : V ! f1; 2; : : :g such that c(u) 6= c(v) if uv 2 E; if jc(V )j k then c is a k-colouring. The Colouring problem is that of testing whether a given graph has a k-colouring for some given integer k. If... Read More about Colouring of Graphs with Ramsey-Type Forbidden Subgraphs.

Social networks are often analyzed through a graph model of the network. The dot product model assumes that two individuals are connected in the social network if their attributes or opinions are similar. In the model, a d-dimensional vector a v repr...

We show that for all k ≤ − 1 an interval graph is − (k + 1)-Hamilton-connected if and only if its scattering number is at most k. We also give an O(n + m) time algorithm for computing the scattering number of an interval graph with n vertices and m e...
