Publicación Deep-Learning Approach to Educational Text Mining and Application to the Analysis of Topics’ Difficulty(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-12-02) Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes; López Ostenero, Fernando; Martínez Romo, Juan; Plaza Morales, LauraLearning analytics has emerged as a promising tool for optimizing the learning experience and results, especially in online educational environments. An important challenge in this area is identifying the most difficult topics for students in a subject, which is of great use to improve the quality of teaching by devoting more effort to those topics of greater difficulty, assigning them more time, resources and materials. We have approached the problem by means of natural language processing techniques. In particular, we propose a solution based on a deep learning model that automatically extracts the main topics that are covered in educational documents. This model is next applied to the problem of identifying the most difficult topics for students in a subject related to the study of algorithms and data structures in a Computer Science degree. Our results show that our topic identification model presents very high accuracy (around 90 percent) and may be efficiently used in learning analytics applications, such as the identification and understanding of what makes the learning of a subject difficult. An exhaustive analysis of the case study has also revealed that there are indeed topics that are consistently more difficult for most students, and also that the perception of difficulty in students and teachers does not always coincide with the actual difficulty indicated by the data, preventing to pay adequate attention to the most challenging topics.Publicación Discovering related scientific literature beyond semantic similarity: a new co-citation approach(Springer, 2019-05-17) Rodríguez Prieto, Oscar; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes; Martínez Romo, JuanWe propose a new approach to recommend scientific literature, a domain in which the efficient organization and search of information is crucial. The proposed system relies on the hypothesis that two scientific articles are semantically related if they are co-cited more frequently than they would be by pure chance. This relationship can be quantified by the probability of co-citation, obtained from a null model that statistically defines what we consider pure chance. Looking for article pairs that minimize this probability, the system is able to recommend a ranking of articles in response to a given article. This system is included in the co-occurrence paradigm of the field. More specifically, it is based on co-cites so it can produce recommendations more focused on relatedness than on similarity. Evaluation has been performed on the ACL Anthology collection and on the DBLP dataset, and a new corpus has been compiled to evaluate the capacity of the proposal to find relationships beyond similarity. Results show that the system is able to provide, not only articles similar to the submitted one, but also articles presenting other kind of relations, thus providing diversity, i.e. connections to new topics.Publicación Understanding and Improving Disability Identification in Medical Documents(IEEE, 2020) Fabregat Marcos, Hermenegildo; Martínez Romo, Juan; Araujo Serna, M. LourdesDisabilities are a problem that affects a large number of people in the world. Gathering information about them is crucial to improve the daily life of the people who suffer from them but, since disabilities are often strongly associated with different types of diseases, the available data are widely dispersed. In this work we review existing proposal for the problem, making an in-depth analysis, and from it we make a proposal that improves the results of previous systems. The analysis focuses on the results of the participants in DIANN shared task was proposed (IberEval 2018), devoted to the detection of named disabilities in electronic documents. In order to evaluate the proposed systems using a common evaluation framework, a corpus of documents, in both English and Spanish, was gathered and annotated. Several teams participated in the task, either using classic methods or proposing specific approaches to deal effectively with the complexities of the task. Our aim is to provide insight for future advances in the field by analyzing the participating systems and identifying the most effective approaches and elements to tackle the problem. We have validated the lessons learned from this analysis through a new proposal that includes the most promising elements used by the participating teams. The proposed system improves, for both languages, the results obtained during the task.Publicación Deep-Learning Approach to Educational Text Mining and Application to the Analysis of Topics’ Difficulty(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-12-02) Araujo Serna, M.
