Distance Learning

by Constance K, Constance K. Smith, Ph. D
"... A survey investigated the attitudes of commuter students toward distance education. RecTondents were 397 students, attending Purdue University Calumet (Indiana) for at least two semesters. Results indicated that if the students had the optior of taking a course at home or in a classroom, 59 percent ..."

distance learning

by J. Mark Pullen, Nicholas K. Clark
"... It is well understood that the two prevalent approaches to distance education, synchronous and asynchronous, can be combined to good effect. However, existing open source software generally is separated into these two categories. This paper introduces an open source capability that combines the popu ..."

Reducing the distance in distance learning

by Mini Marianna, Charalabopoulou Frieda
"... One of the most common problems reported by students in distance learning courses is the feeling of isolation. The lack of aural and visual cues, the geographical and psychological distance among distance-learners and/or between the tutor and the students, the absence of expression of emotions are s ..."

Distance metric learning, with application to clustering with sideinformation,”

by Eric P Xing , Andrew Y Ng , Michael I Jordan , Stuart Russell - in Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 15, , 2002
"... Abstract Many algorithms rely critically on being given a good metric over their inputs. For instance, data can often be clustered in many "plausible" ways, and if a clustering algorithm such as K-means initially fails to find one that is meaningful to a user, the only recourse may be for ..."

to provide examples. In this paper, we present an algorithm that, given examples of similar (and, if desired, dissimilar) pairs of points in Ê Ò , learns a distance metric over Ê Ò that respects these relationships. Our method is based on posing metric learning as a convex optimization problem, which allows

Distance Learning Roundtable

"... Distance learning for higher education has its advocates and its detractors. Researchers, drawing primarily on psychological and educational research literatures, make impassioned arguments for and against institutionalizing distance learning. Undoubtedly, with increasingly rapid technological devel ..."

Distance metric learning for large margin nearest neighbor classification

by Kilian Q. Weinberger, John Blitzer, Lawrence K. Saul - In NIPS , 2006
"... We show how to learn a Mahanalobis distance metric for k-nearest neighbor (kNN) classification by semidefinite programming. The metric is trained with the goal that the k-nearest neighbors always belong to the same class while examples from different classes are separated by a large margin. On seven ..."
