Research on automated essay scoring has become increasing important because it serves as a method for evaluating students' written-responses at scale. Scalable methods for scoring written responses are needed as students migrate to online learning environments resulting in the need to evaluate large numbers of written-response assessments. The purpose of this study is to describe and evaluate three active learning methods than can be used to minimize the number of essays that must be scored by human raters while still providing the data needed to train a modern automated essay scoring system. The three active learning methods are the uncertainty-based, the topological-based, and the hybrid method. These three methods were used to select essays included as part of the Automated Student Assessment Prize competition that were then classified using a scoring model that was training with the bidirectional encoder representations from transformer language model. All three active learning methods produced strong results, with the topological-based method producing the most efficient classification. Growth rate accuracy was also evaluated. The active learning methods produced different levels of efficiency under different sample size allocations but, overall, all three methods were highly efficient and produced classifications that were similar to one another.

We live in an age increasingly dominated by algorithms. As machine learning models begin making important decisions based on massive datasets, we need to be aware of their limitations in the real world. Whether it's making loan decisions or re-routing traffic, machine learning models need to accurately reflect our shared values. In this course, we will explore the rise of algorithms, from the most basic to the fully-autonomous, and discuss how to make them more ethically sound.

This course offers a brief introduction to the multivariate calculus required to build many common machine learning techniques. We start at the very beginning with a refresher on the "rise over run" formulation of a slope, before converting this to the formal definition of the gradient of a function. We then start to build up a set of tools for making calculus easier and faster. Next, we learn how to calculate vectors that point up hill on multidimensional surfaces and even put this into action using an interactive game. We take a look at how we can use calculus to build approximations to functions, as well as helping us to quantify how accurate we should expect those approximations to be.

We study the performance of standard online learning algorithms when the feedback is delayed by an adversary. We show that online-gradient-descent [1] and follow-the-perturbed-leader [2] achieve regret O( D) in the delayed setting, where D is the sum of delays of each round's feedback. This bound collapses to an optimal O( T) bound in the usual setting of no delays (where D = T). Our main contribution is to show that standard algorithms for online learning already have simple regret bounds in the most general setting of delayed feedback, making adjustments to the analysis and not to the algorithms themselves. Our results help affirm and clarify the success of recent algorithms in optimization and machine learning that operate in a delayed feedback model.

Recently, knowledge tracing models have been applied in educational data mining such as the Self-attention knowledge tracing model(SAKT), which models the relationship between exercises and Knowledge concepts(Kcs). However, relation modeling in traditional Knowledge tracing models only considers the static question-knowledge relationship and knowledge-knowledge relationship and treats these relationships with equal importance. This kind of relation modeling is difficult to avoid the influence of subjective labeling and considers the relationship between exercises and KCs, or KCs and KCs separately. In this work, a novel knowledge tracing model, named Knowledge Relation Rank Enhanced Heterogeneous Learning Interaction Modeling for Neural Graph Forgetting Knowledge Tracing(NGFKT), is proposed to reduce the impact of the subjective labeling by calibrating the skill relation matrix and the Q-matrix and apply the Graph Convolutional Network(GCN) to model the heterogeneous interactions between students, exercises, and skills. Specifically, the skill relation matrix and Q-matrix are generated by the Knowledge Relation Importance Rank Calibration method(KRIRC). Then the calibrated skill relation matrix, Q-matrix, and the heterogeneous interactions are treated as the input of the GCN to generate the exercise embedding and skill embedding. Next, the exercise embedding, skill embedding, item difficulty, and contingency table are incorporated to generate an exercise relation matrix as the inputs of the Position-Relation-Forgetting attention mechanism. Finally, the Position-Relation-Forgetting attention mechanism is applied to make the predictions. Experiments are conducted on the two public educational datasets and results indicate that the NGFKT model outperforms all baseline models in terms of AUC, ACC, and Performance Stability(PS).

This is my solution to all the programming assignments and quizzes of Machine-Learning (Coursera) taught by Andrew Ng. After completing this course you will get a broad idea of Machine learning algorithms. Try to solve all the assignments by yourself first, but if you get stuck somewhere then feel free to browse the code.

However they require more control effort and have worse stability and are less roblistto mismodeling. NNs synergistically augment traditional adaptive control techniques by providing improved mismodeling robustness both adaptively on-line for time-varying dynamics as well as in a learned control mode at a slower rate. The NN control approaches which correspond to direct and indirect adaptive control are commonly known as inverse and forward modeling.

By an extension of statistical me(cid:173) chanics methods, we obtain exact results for the time-dependent generalization error of a linear network with a large number of weights N. We find, for example, that for small training sets of size p N, larger learning rates can be used without compromis(cid:173) ing asymptotic generalization performance or convergence speed. Encouragingly, for optimal settings of TJ (and, less importantly, weight decay,) at given final learning time, the generalization per(cid:173) formance of online learning is essentially as good as that of offline learning.
