In the framework of the Computational Intelligence course of the Department of Business Administration of the TEI of Patras, the trainees carry out a research aiming to study cognitive processes and aspects of the personality and behavior of students and students of the Greek Universities and Technological Educational Institutions of the country.
The kids asked us to let the survey be made public to iGuRu.gr to be able to have more samples. If you wish to help by answering the questionnaire, you should be aware that your answers are anonymous and confidential and will not be used for any other reason than the scientific study. For this reason, please answer honestly and yourself. The observance of personal data is in accordance with the State Personal Data Protection Authority of the State (Law 2472 / 1997). When the results are published, nothing will betray the identities of those who participated.
Application of Methods of Mechanical Learning in the Assessment of Student Concentration
In the present study, Machine Learning techniques are applied in order to evaluate the concentration of students. Data were collected by completing electronic questionnaires, which were created based on the absorption scale and using the services Google Forms.
The online questionnaires were posted on on-line place http://www.cicos.gr created for this purpose. The sample consists of students aged from 18 to 28 years old. The absorption scale was constructed to determine the concentration that is considered a key parameter for the development and management of depression.
The absorption scale which assesses 2 subtypes of absorption (internal and external) examines the degree and duration of self-concentration (internal absorption) as well as the management of external concentration on a specific object work.
Then, the collected data was selected for analysis, with relevant transformations, to be appropriately formatted to meet the requirements for the implementation of the corresponding engineering learning algorithms. For data analysis we used the Weka open source software package, which contains a variety of Mechanical Learning and Data Mining methods.
In addition, the parameters of the corresponding algorithms were defined, depending on the application case in order to produce rules fromtreatmentof conclusions. Concluding, the evaluation of the importance of the extracted rules/conclusions was carried out
