Proposals for automating the creation of teaching materials across the sciences and humanities include question generation from ontologies.
Those efforts have focused on multiple-choice questions, whereas learners also need to be exposed to...
Modelling Localised Conceptualisations and Annotations in a Multilingual OWL Ontology
By: Frances Gillis-Webber
Ontologies are intended as a particular conceptualisation of the world. When formalised using Web Ontology Language (OWL), entities and axioms contained therein are typically annotated in a natural language, using rdfs:label. To create a...
An Investigation of a Game Generator Tool to Teach Recursion
By: Jecton Anyango
Learning programming is difficult for most students. Particularly, the recursion topic. Although games have been proposed as an alternative instructional media given their motivational impact, their mainstream adoption rate in teaching still...
Investigating Multiple periodicities in User’s Web Search Behaviour to Improve Personalization of Information Retrieval Systems
By: Jivashi Nagar
Web users generally get irrelevant results when they submit an ambiguous and/or under-specified query. Search engines are not able to distinguish the different intents associated with a query. The results provided are generally biased towards...
Cost-aware Internet Security Decision Model

A Corpus-based Method for Authoring Competency Questions in Ontology Engineering
By: Mj Antia
Competency Questions (CQs) are sets of natural language questions drawn from a given domain and are intended for use in ontology engineering processes. While there has been substantial research on the important roles that CQs play in the ontology...
Solving hard problems with local search for Boolean satisfiability
By: Johan Bontes
Computers have become essential tools for solving scientific problems. Whilst humans are good at many aspects of problem solving, computers outclass them in many ways, for example in precise logical reasoning using propositional logic, also known...
Human Belief Change
An Empirical Investigation for Patterns of Belief Change in Human Reasoning
By: Clayton Baker
Belief revision and belief update are approaches to represent and reason with knowledge in artificial intelligence. Previous empirical studies showed that human reasoning is consistent with non-monotonic logic. Additionally, previous studies showed...
