In this work we study the binary transfer learning problem involving 10^2 -10^3 sources. We focus on how to select sources from the large pool and how to combine them to yield a good performance on a target task. In particular, we consider the transfer lea ...
With the general technological advances of the recent years, current learning environments amass an abundance of data. Albeit such data offer the chance of better understand the learning process, stakeholders – learners, teachers and institutions – often n ...
Massive online open courses’ (MOOCs’) students who use discussion forums have higher chances of finishing the course. However, little research has been conducted for understanding the underlying fac- tors. One of the reasons which hinders the analysis is t ...
Objectives: Many nanomaterials (materials with structures smaller than 100 nm) have chemical, physical and bioactive characteristics of interest for novel applications. Considerable research efforts have been launched in this field. This study aimed to stu ...
We present the general notion of Borel fields of metric spaces and show some properties of such fields. Then we make the study specific to the Borel fields of proper CAT(0) spaces and we show that the standard tools we need behave in a Borel way. We also i ...
Infrastructure can be wielded as a means of promoting the common good or as an institutional weapon of exploitation. While the highways, bridges and dams funded by international economic interests and built in outlying regions like the Amazon play a role t ...
For many, the self-evident use of the car blends out other possible mobilities. We seek a way to unfold the future by questioning other ways of moving around and living. In order to do so, we consider automobility as a problem to which solutions can be fou ...
Starting from an architect’s point of view, the aim of this research is to combine the daylight performance of educational spaces with a broader spatial, cultural, and historical approach. Through a rigorous study of school typologies, the geometry of thei ...
There are numerous proposals and solutions that aim to apply Learning Analytics (LA) in authentic scenarios. Many of them have been applied successfully in learning contexts where adults are involved. However, when we try to transfer such proposals to unde ...
