Research / Other Relevance: 8/10 12 cited 2023 paper

This paper proposes an Adaptive Learning Path Navigation (ALPN) system that combines Attentive Knowledge Tracing (AKT) to assess students' knowledge states with an Entropy-enhanced Proximal Policy Optimization (EPPO) algorithm to recommend tailored learning materials, creating personalized adaptive learning paths in E-learning platforms. The system dynamically updates knowledge states as students complete materials and demonstrates 8.2% improvement in learning outcomes and 10.5% higher diversity in learning path generation compared to previous approaches.

This paper introduces the Adaptive Learning Path Navigation (ALPN) system, a novel approach for enhancing E-learning platforms by providing highly adaptive learning paths for students. The ALPN system integrates the Attentive Knowledge Tracing (AKT) model, which assesses students' knowledge states, with the proposed Entropy-enhanced Proximal Policy Optimization (EPPO) algorithm. This new algorithm optimizes the recommendation of learning materials. By harmonizing these models, the ALPN system ta
