In this paper we show how the deployment of a lightweight note sharing system can restore the antique social vocation of annotations in the classroom. The system was designed for the classroom context and evaluated through a longitudinal study lasting for ...
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 ...
In this paper, we study the applicability of active learning (AL) in operative scenarios. More particularly, we consider the well-known contradiction between the AL heuristics, which rank the pixels according to their uncertainty, and the user's confidence ...
The Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland, is deploying a flexible learning scheme for selected pilot courses in engineering education. In such a scheme, traditional lectures and written exercises are combined with addition ...
This book provides an introduction to spatio-temporal design that contains a description of one or two basic settings (e.g., migration and biodiversity) that includes real data sets, data-generating mechanisms, and possible simulation scenarios. Furthermor ...
In recent years, several studies have been published about the smart definition of training set using active learning algorithms. However, none of these works consider the contradiction between the active learning methods, which rank the pixels according t ...
We consider the problem of actively learning \textit{multi-index} functions of the form f(x)=g(Ax)=∑i=1kgi(aiTx) from point evaluations of f. We assume that the function f is defined on an ℓ2-ball in \Reald, g is twice contin ...
These theory files (Mathematica Notebooks) are a complement to the Thesis of M. Geissbuehler. The derivation is too lengthy to be included in this form in the thesis. For further explenations of the derivation please refer to the thesis of M. Geissbuehler ...

This paper discusses the potential role of social software in supporting teamwork and collaborative project management in higher education. Based on the fact that social software has been widely spread among young students nowadays, using it for collaborat ...
We introduce a new theoretical model of ad hoc mobile computing in which agents have severely restricted memory, highly unpredictable movement and no initial knowledge of the system. Each agent’s memory can store O(1) bits, plus a unique identifier, and O(1 ...
