Optimal Knowledge Component Extracting Model for Knowledge-Concept Graph Completion in Education
This paper proposes the OKCE (Optimal Knowledge Component Extracting) model that combines Elastic Net, Random Forest, and deep knowledge tracing (DKT) to discover relationships among knowledge concepts in educational curricula, generating knowledge-concept graphs to support adaptive and personalized learning paths for students.
