Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-11647-6_84

Deciding upon instructor intervention based on learners’ comments that need an urgent response in MOOC environments is a known challenge. The best solutions proposed used automatic machine learning (ML) models to predict the urgency. These are ‘black...

Automatically identifying the learner gender, which serves as this paper’s focus, can provide valuable information to personalised learners’ experiences in MOOCs. However, extracting the gender from learner-generated data (discussion forum) is a chal...

Predicting Learners' Demographics Characteristics: Deep Learning Ensemble Architecture for Learners' Characteristics Prediction in MOOCs (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Aljohani, T., & Cristea, A. I. (2019, December). Predicting Learners' Demographics Characteristics: Deep Learning Ensemble Architecture for Learners' Characteristics Prediction in MOOCs. Presented at ICIEI 2019: 2019 The 4th International Conference on Information and Education Innovations

Author Profiling (AP), which aims to predict an author's demographics characteristics automatically by using texts written by the author, is an important mechanism for many applications, as well as highly challenging. In this research, we analyse var... Read More about Predicting Learners' Demographics Characteristics: Deep Learning Ensemble Architecture for Learners' Characteristics Prediction in MOOCs.
