GameDKT: Deep knowledge tracing in educational games

作者:

Highlights:

• This research developed a novel deep knowledge tracing approach for educational games.

• It models players skill level by integrating machine learning with domain knowledge.

• It predicts players performance in next game tasks using a CNN model with AUC of 0.913.

• The CNN model seems to be faster than sequential models in identifying local patterns.

• The CNN outperforms RNN and LSTM models in both one- and multi-step predictions.
