Natural Language Processing Faculty Publications

We present an overview of the CLEF-2023 CheckThat! lab Task 4, which focused on predicting the factuality of reporting of entire news outlets. This is a different level of granularity compared to previous efforts, which focused on fact-checking, where the target is a claim, or fake news detection, where the target is an article. We briefly summarize the participating systems and discuss the dataset, the task, and the evaluation setup. The task attracted a large number of registrations, and eventually five teams made submissions. All participants improved over the baseline by a margin using both deep learning and traditional machine …


Asset-Based Approaches To Multilingual Students’ Computer Science Identity Development, Sharin Rawhiya Jacob, Mark Warschauer 2023 University of California, Irvine

Asset-Based Approaches To Multilingual Students’ Computer Science Identity Development, Sharin Rawhiya Jacob, Mark Warschauer

Journal of Computer Science Integration

While computer science identity development has been examined in several studies, there is much to learn about the development of multilingual students’ computer science (CS) identities. To develop strong CS identities, multilingual students must engage in culturally and linguistically sustaining curriculum, pedagogy, and interaction that draws from their rich and varied resources. This theoretical paper is grounded in a justice-centered, asset-based framework that views the traditions and practices in students’ cultures and communities as strong contributors to knowledge construction in STEM. We draw on multiple studies exploring multilingual student CS identity development to better understand how their personal, familial, community-based, …

Near Peer Pedagogies For Culturally Sustaining Computer Science And Mathematics, Cliff Freeman, Eli Tucker-Raymond, Juan Gutierrez

Journal of Computer Science Integration

In this study, College STEM Literacy Workers act as co-teachers in 9th and 10th grade classrooms alongside mathematics teachers as they both learn to integrate a 30-hour integrated computer science/mathematics curriculum. As part of the curriculum for educator learning, we adapted the Algebra Project’s “Model of Excellence” for culturally relevant-sustaining pedagogies. We used the framework to explore how teachers understand College STEM Literacy Workers’ contributions in the model as well as College STEM Literacy Workers’ own experiences in the classroom. We found that while teachers and College STEM Literacy Workers did not individually instantiate the model of excellence, they were …

A Multi-Scale Feature Attention Image Recognition Algorithm, Xin Ming Yuan, Ang Ling Weay, Sellappan Palaniappan

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

The success of image classification using small samples is contingent on neural network models' capability to derive image representations from the data. A proposed solution is a small-sample image classification system that leverages attention mechanisms and meta-learning to capture more comprehensive image information. Due to its ability to efficiently suppress irrelevant characteristics and accentuate pertinent ones, this technique may extract more robust multiscale features and enhance classification performance through meta-learning.In this paper, the effectiveness of the multi-scale attention network is verified on two datasets, namely, Mini-ImageNet and Tiered-ImageNet, and the accuracy of the method is 58.54% for 5-way 1shot and …

Dropout Prediction Model For College Students In Moocs Based On Weighted Multi-Feature And Svm, Zhang Yujiao, Ang Ling Weay, Shi Shaomin, Sellappan Palaniappan

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

Due to the COVID -19 pandemic, MOOCs have become a popular form of learning for college students. However, unlike traditional face-to-face courses, MOOCs offer little faculty supervision, which may result in students being insufficiently motivated to continue learning, ultimately leading to a high dropout rate. Consequently, the problem of high dropout rates in MOOCs requires urgent attention in MOOC research. Predicting dropout rates is the first step to address this problem, and MOOCs have a large amount of behavioral data that can be used for such predictions. Most existing models for predicting MOOC dropout based on behavioral data assign equal …

The Assistance Of Eye Blink Detection For Two- Factor Authentication, Wei-Hoong Chuah, Siew-Chin Chong, Lee-Ying Chong

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

This paper discusses the implementation of a blink detection method using 68 facial markers and the eye aspect ratio (EAR) to provide strong protection for access systems. It investigates the importance of 68 facial markers and explores how to use eye landmarks to calculate the eye aspect ratio. Access systems, which should have good security measures and be difficult to decipher, are typically safeguarded by passwords or multi-factor verification, such as passwords combined with facial recognition. However, these methods have inherent weaknesses, including the risk of shoulder surfing with passwords and the potential to be deceived by fake face images …


Genregait: Gender Recognition Using Gait Features, Yue Fong Ti, Tee Connie, Michael Kah Ong Goh 2023 Multimedia University, Malaysia

Genregait: Gender Recognition Using Gait Features, Yue Fong Ti, Tee Connie, Michael Kah Ong Goh

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

Gender recognition based on gait features has gained significant interest due to its wide range of applications in various fields. This paper proposes GenReGait, a robust method for gender recognition utilizing gait features. Gait, the unique walking pattern of individuals, contains distinct gender-specific characteristics, such as stride length, step frequency, and body posture, making it a promising modality for gender estimation. The proposed GenReGait method begins by extracting landmark positions on the human body using a human keypoint estimation technique. These landmarks serve as informative cues for estimating gender based on their spatial and temporal characteristics. However, environmental factors can …

Analysing Gamma Frequency Components In Eeg Signals: A Comprehensive Extraction Approach, Tanvir Hasib, Vijayakumar Vengadasalam

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

Gamma band activity is a high-frequency (30-100 Hz) oscillation of the electroencephalogram (EEG) that has been linked to a variety of cognitive processes including attention, memory and learning. However, extracting gamma band activity from EEG data can be challenging due to the relatively low signal-to-noise ratio of gamma band signals and the presence of other frequency bands such as beta and alpha. In this paper, we present a method for extracting gamma band activity from EEG data. We evaluated our method on a dataset of EEG data recorded from dyslexic patients. We found that our method was able to successfully …
