摘要:
Knowledge graphs are multi-relation heterogeneous graphs. Thus, the existence of numerous multi-relation entities imposes a tough challenge to the modelling of the knowledge graph. Some recent works represent the property of corresponding entities and relations by generating embeddings. They attempted to identify the missing entities by translation operations or semantic matching. However, the expressiveness of these approaches depends on the entity (relations) embedding. The heterogeneity of entities leads to the difficulty of balancing uniform embedding dimension settings on complex and sparse relational entities, as high-dimensional embedding leads to the overfitting of sparse relational entities, and low-dimensional embedding leads to the underfitting of complex relational entities. We introduce a multi-perspective knowledge graph embedding model with global and interaction features (MGIF) to alleviate these issues. This achieved knowledge transfer from complex relational entities to sparse relational entities through the multi-view features. In particular, to overcome the local limitations of convolution neural networks, the global features shared between entities (relations) and entities (relations) are incorporated in the MGIF. The performance of MGIF is experimentally evaluated on several datasets. The experimental effects demonstrate that MGIF can efficiently model complicated entities and accomplish state-of-the-art complex relationship prediction results on most evaluation metrics.

摘要:
Head pose estimation (HPE) is an indispensable upstream task in the fields of human-machine interaction, self-driving, and attention detection. However, practical head pose applications suffer from several challenges, such as severe occlusion, low illumination, and extreme orientations. To address these challenges, we identify three cues from head images, namely, critical minority relationships, neighborhood orientation relationships, and significant facial changes. On the basis of the three cues, two key insights on head poses are revealed: 1) intra-orientation relationship and 2) cross-orientation relationship. To leverage two key insights above, a novel relationship-driven method is proposed based on the Transformer architecture, in which facial and orientation relationships can be learned. Specifically, we design several orientation tokens to explicitly encode basic orientation regions. Besides, a novel token guide multi-loss function is accordingly designed to guide the orientation tokens as they learn the desired regional similarities and relationships. Experimental results on three challenging benchmark HPE datasets show that our proposed TokenHPE achieves state-of-the-art performance. Moreover, qualitative visualizations are provided to verify the effectiveness of the token-learning methodology.
摘要:
Many knowledge graphs, especially those that are collaboratively or automatically generated, are prone to noise and cross-domain entries, which can impede domain-specific applications. Existing methods for pruning inaccurate or out-of-domain information from knowledge graphs often rely on topological graph-pruning strategies. However, these approaches have two major drawbacks: they may discard logical structure and semantic information, and they allow multiple inheritance. To address these limitations, this study introduces KGPruning, which is a novel approach that can effectively clean and prune noisy knowledge graphs by guiding tasks with a given set of concepts and automatically generating a domain-specific taxonomy. Specifically, KGPruning employs a graph hierarchy inference method that is based on the Agony model to precisely identify and eliminate noisy entries while striving to preserve the underlying hierarchy of semantic relations as much as possible. Furthermore, to establish a tree-structured taxonomy, KGPruning integrates semantic relations and structural characteristics to effectively eliminate out-of-domain informa-tion and multiple inheritance. Through extensive experimental evaluations conducted on open benchmark datasets as well as large-scale real-world problems, the superior performance of KGPruning over state-of-the-art methods is demonstrated on the task of pruning noisy knowledge graphs.

摘要:
Understanding factors that influence k-12 students’ Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) performance is essential to improving their problem-solving ability. Most studies have focused on the relationship between students’ psychological factors and STEM performance and have paid little attention to the relationship between behavioral factors and STEM performance. This study explored the impact of behavioral factors (i.e., information and communications technology (ICT) readiness and online interaction (OI)) and psychological factors (i.e., internet self-efficacy (ISE)) on k-12 students’ STEM performance. The sample included 851 fifth graders and 535 eighth graders from cities in central China. The results of structural equation modeling analysis showed that ISE and ICT readiness (IR) significantly impacted the STEM performance of eighth graders. More importantly, ISE, a psychological factor, had the greatest effect on STEM performance and played a mediating role in the relationship between IR, OI, and STEM performance. These findings have important implications for STEM teachers. To improve students’ STEM performance, teachers should intervene to improve ISE according to students’ grades and cognitive ability, guide students to use ICT correctly, and encourage them to actively engage in OI.
摘要:
Decoding brain activity from non-invasive electroencephalography (EEG) is crucial for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and the study of brain disorders. Notably, end-to-end EEG decoding has gained widespread popularity in recent years owing to the remarkable advances in deep learning research. However, many EEG studies suffer from limited sample sizes, making it difficult for existing deep learning models to effectively generalize to highly noisy EEG data. To address this fundamental limitation, this paper proposes a novel end-to-end EEG decoding algorithm that utilizes a low-rank weight matrix to encode both spatio-temporal filters and the classifier, all optimized under a principled sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) framework. Importantly, this SBL framework also enables us to learn hyperparameters that optimally penalize the model in a Bayesian fashion. The proposed decoding algorithm is systematically benchmarked on five motor imagery BCI EEG datasets ( N=192) and an emotion recognition EEG dataset ( N=45), in comparison with several contemporary algorithms, including end-to-end deep-learning-based EEG decoding algorithms. The classification results demonstrate that our algorithm significantly outperforms the competing algorithms while yielding neurophysiologically meaningful spatio-temporal patterns. Our algorithm therefore advances the state-of-the-art by providing a novel EEG-tailored machine learning tool for decoding brain activity.

摘要:
By evaluating learners' perceived preferences for the learning environment, we can understand the important characteristics and better improve the learning environment, ultimately to provide great potential for the optimization of teaching practice. Seeing that the current research pays less attention to teachers' and students' preferences for the space environment simultaneously, based on the survey of 1937 undergraduates and 107 teachers from a university in central China, this study aims to explore their preferences for smart learning environment. Based on the ecological theory and research results of the existing learning environment, this paper constructed an ecological model and a conceptual model of learning space preferences. An empirical study was conducted to explore the impact of sociodemographic variables on personal spatial preference. The results showed that teachers and students had a positive attitude towards the smart learning environment, and gender, age, grade, subject category and other variables had limited impact on spatial preference.

摘要:
Classroom interaction affects the classroom atmosphere as well as students' behavior and participation, thus affecting the quality of classroom teaching. In traditional classrooms, inherent problems (e.g., inflexible tables and chairs, rigid multimedia consoles, and traditional software) have seriously restricted the overall quality of classroom interpersonal interaction. In recent years, the problem of enhancing classroom interaction has gradually attracted the attention of scholars. The application of project-based learning (PBL) in higher education is effective, but few studies have analyzed the differences in interaction between smart classrooms and traditional classrooms in PBL courses. In this study, through the proposed teacher-student classroom interaction behavior analysis framework, 20 sessions in smart classrooms and 20 sessions in traditional classrooms were encoded to illustrate the differences between interaction in these two types of classrooms. Furthermore, 765 student questionnaires on satisfaction with and participation in smart classrooms were collected to determine whether smart classrooms affect students' satisfaction and participation in PBL courses. The questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS 27.0. The results showed that there were significant differences in four dimensions of teachers' behavior, students' behavior, technology, and other interactions between the smart classroom and the traditional classroom. After taking PBL courses in a smart classroom, students were generally satisfied and thought that the smart learning environment could help them improve their thinking and learning. Suggestions on the further construction and application of smart classrooms are proposed.

摘要:
It is commonly known that food nutrition is closely related to human health. The complex interactions between food nutrients and diseases, influenced by gut microbial metabolism, present challenges in systematizing and practically applying knowledge. To address this, we propose a method for extracting triples from a vast amount of literature, which is used to construct a comprehensive knowledge graph on nutrition and human health. Concurrently, we develop a query-based question answering system over our knowledge graph, proficiently addressing three types of questions. The results show that our proposed model outperforms other state-of-art methods, achieving a precision of 0.92, a recall of 0.81, and an F1 score of 0.86in the nutrition and disease relation extraction task. Meanwhile, our question answering system achieves an accuracy of 0.68 and an F1 score of 0.61 on our benchmark dataset, showcasing competitiveness in practical scenarios. Furthermore, we design five independent experiments to assess the quality of the data structure in the knowledge graph, ensuring results characterized by high accuracy and interpretability. In conclusion, the construction of our knowledge graph shows significant promise in facilitating diet recommendations, enhancing patient care applications, and informing decision-making in clinical research.
