Hsu, Hao-Hsuan; Huang, Nen-Fu – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2022
This article introduces Xiao-Shih, the first intelligent question answering bot on Chinese-based massive open online courses (MOOCs). Question answering is critical for solving individual problems. However, instructors on MOOCs must respond to many questions, and learners must wait a long time for answers. To address this issue, Xiao-Shih…

Li, Guo-Dong; Yamaguchi, Daisuke; Nagai, Masatake; Masuda, Shiro – International Journal of Learning and Change, 2008
In this paper, we propose a new prediction analysis model which combines the first order one variable Grey differential equation Model (abbreviated as GM(1,1) model) from grey system theory and time series Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model from statistics theory. We abbreviate the combined GM(1,1) ARIMA model as ARGM(1,1)…
