Choosing versus receiving feedback: The impact of feedback valence on learning in an assessment game
Choosing versus receiving feedback: The impact of feedback valence on learning in an assessment game
2016
Studies examining feedback in educational settings have largely focused on feedback that is received, rather than chosen, by students. This study investigates whether adult participants learn more from choosing rather than receiving feedback from virtual characters in a digital poster design...

Answer typing is an important aspect of the question answering process. Most commonly addressed with the use of a fixed set of possible answer classes via question classification, answer typing influences which answers will ultimately be selected as correct. Answer typing introduces the concept...

Many important problems can be cast as state-space problems. In this dissertation we study a general paradigm for solving state-space problems which we name Cluster-and-Conquer (C&C). Algorithms that follow the C&C paradigm use the concept of equivalent states to reduce the number of states...

There has been a renewed interest in commonsense as a stepping stone toward achieving human-level intelligence. By digesting enormous amounts of data in different forms, such as visual, lingual, and sensory, humans are able to create a world model for themselves. It is hypothesized that this...

Algorithmic decipherment is a prime example of a truly unsupervised problem. This thesis presents several algorithms developed for the purpose of decrypting unknown alphabetic scripts representing unknown languages. We assume that symbols in scripts which contain no more than a few dozen unique...

Coordination and Optimization of Power Distribution Systems with Stochastic Distributed Energy Resources using Artificial Intelligence
DownloadSpring 2021
High levels of penetration of distributed photovoltaic generators can cause serious overvoltage issues, especially during periods of high power generation and light loads. It is of vital importance to gain more understanding of the system and to prepare mitigation plans before the number of PV...

Data-Driven and Artificial Intelligence Approach to Dynamic Truck Fleet Dispatching and Shovel Allocation Planning in Open-Pit Mines
DownloadFall 2023
An open-pit mine is a highly dynamic environment where different equipment resources are allocated to mining areas to extract metal-bearing rock and waste, for pit development, following a set flow of activities. The material mined is then transported through the mine road network to different...

SSHRC IG awarded 2024: Generative artificial intelligence technologies, particularly large language models like ChatGPT, promise to revolutionize how we work, learn, and even govern, and are being positioned as central actors in a rapidly evolving digital society. However, the deployment of such...

Heuristic search has been shown to be an effective way to solve state-space problems. While many heuristic search techniques are guaranteed to find the best solution, these are often not feasible given practical resource requirements. In such cases, it is necessary to sacrifice solution...
