Observation of classroom interactions can provide concrete feedback to teachers, but current methods rely on manual annotation, which is resource-intensive and hard to scale. This work explores AI-driven analysis of classroom recordings,…
Student engagement is a key construct for learning and teaching. While most of the literature explored the student engagement analysis on computer-based settings, this paper extends that focus to classroom instruction. To best examine…
Advances in deep learning have resulted in state-of-the-art performance for many audio classification tasks but, unlike humans, these systems traditionally require large amounts of data to make accurate predictions. Not every person or…
We collected a new dataset that includes approximately eight hours of audiovisual recordings of a group of students and their self-evaluation scores for classroom engagement. The dataset and data analysis scripts are available on our…
The recent advances in artificial intelligence and deep learning facilitate automation in various applications including home automation, smart surveillance systems, and healthcare among others. Human Activity Recognition is one of its…
Classroom activity detection (CAD) focuses on accurately classifying whether the teacher or student is speaking and recording both the length of individual utterances during a class. A CAD solution helps teachers get instant feedback on…
This study proposes a multimodal neural network-based approach to predict segment access frequency in lecture archives. These archives, widely used as supplementary resources in modern education, often consist of long, unedited recordings…
Over the years, activity sensing and recognition has been shown to play a key enabling role in a wide range of applications, from sustainability and human-computer interaction to health care. While many recognition tasks have traditionally…
Activity recognition computer vision algorithms can be used to detect the presence of autism-related behaviors, including what are termed "restricted and repetitive behaviors", or stimming, by diagnostic instruments. The limited data that…
Prior work has developed a range of automated measures ("detectors") of student self-regulation and engagement from student log data. These measures have been successfully used to make discoveries about student learning. Here, we extend…
Classroom activity detection (CAD) aims at accurately recognizing speaker roles (either teacher or student) in classrooms. A CAD solution helps teachers get instant feedback on their pedagogical instructions. However, CAD is very…
Young people are increasingly exposed to adverse effects of data-driven profiling, recommending, and manipulation on social media platforms, most of them without adequate understanding of the mechanisms that drive these platforms. In the…
We study the problem of detecting talking activities in collaborative learning videos. Our approach uses head detection and projections of the log-magnitude of optical flow vectors to reduce the problem to a simple classification of small…
Over the past several decades, a large body of research has shown that undergraduate science students learn more and more equitably in active learning classrooms; however, the term "active learning" lacks definition and little research has…
Understanding student behavior in the classroom is essential to improve both pedagogical quality and student engagement. Existing methods for predicting student engagement typically require substantial annotated data to model the diversity…
There are various teaching methods developed in order to attain successful delivery of a subject without prior knowledge of the interaction among the students in a class. Social network analysis can be used to identify individual,…
With the rise of online and virtual learning, monitoring and enhancing student engagement have become an important aspect of effective education. Traditional methods of assessing a student's involvement might not be applicable directly to…
Learning analytics research increasingly studies classroom learning with AI-based systems through rich contextual data from outside these systems, especially student-teacher interactions. One key challenge in leveraging such data is…
Sensor-based human activity segmentation and recognition are two important and challenging problems in many real-world applications and they have drawn increasing attention from the deep learning community in recent years. Most of the…
Learning-based solutions for vision tasks require a large amount of labeled training data to ensure their performance and reliability. In single-task vision-based settings, inconsistency-based active learning has proven to be effective in…
