    by Hongyuan Ma, Yin Chen, Yujia Song 
    Abstract: For a long time, the management evaluation information work of students has relied on the subjective evaluation of people. Such evaluation is not highly professional and scientific, and the evaluation experience is not easy to be inherited and preserved. This paper selected the K-means clustering algorithm to build an intelligent learning management evaluation information system, because it can better reflect the actual needs and solve the application requirements according to the actual needs. This paper uses the grades of 20 college students as data samples and applies the K-means clustering algorithm to the intelligent student management and evaluation information system. The management and processing mechanism of students in colleges and universities had been improved to improve the speed of data analysis, so that the outstanding rate of students had increased by about 20% compared with the original. This could help the decision-making of colleges and universities to be more professional. Through mobile communication intelligent decision support system, the construction of the student management evaluation information system was realised.

    ( Free Full-text Access ) CC-BY-NC-ND
    by Guohua Li 
    Abstract: The fragmentation and dynamic changes of user behaviour data in the current cloud basketball teaching system lead to delayed recommendation content and low matching degree. This paper proposes a personalised recommendation method based on big data analysis and deep learning. It combines the long short-term memory (LSTM) network to extract training time series features, and integrates the collaborative filtering algorithm to optimise personalised recommendations to accurately identify users’ training rhythm and technical shortcomings. Experiments show that after 50 training cycles, the model’s root mean square error (RMSE) reached 0.36 and the mean absolute error (MAE) was 0.33. After the personalised recommendation system, the user training completion rate was improved, ranging from 20% to 30%. This method can effectively improve the intelligence level of basketball teaching system and promote the realisation of personalised learning.

  •   Free full-text access Open AccessAn evaluation of online English teaching learning effectiveness based on decision tree classification algorithm
    ( Free Full-text Access ) CC-BY-NC-ND
    by Yingying Qi 
    Abstract: To enhance the accuracy and real-time performance in evaluating online English teaching effectiveness, this study proposes an evaluation model based on the decision tree classification algorithm. First, an evaluation index system is established, and principal component analysis (PCA) is employed to screen the most relevant indicators. The filtered data is then pre-processed for analysis. Given that online English teaching data is typically a hybrid data type, the classification and regression trees (CART) algorithm is utilised for the evaluation task. Furthermore, to mitigate model overfitting, an improved algorithm that incorporates decision tree depth as a pruning weight is introduced. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a maximum R² value of 0.974, a maximum inconsistency index of only 0.29, and a maximum evaluation time of 5.80 seconds. These findings indicate that the method possesses high evaluation accuracy and promising real-time performance.

  •   Free full-text access Open AccessDesign and implementation of a real-time intelligent translation system for network language based on incremental learning
    ( Free Full-text Access ) CC-BY-NC-ND
    by Ying Liu 
    Abstract: This paper proposes a real-time intelligent system based on incremental learning for translating network language, in order to solve the problem of traditional translation systems being unable to cope with language changes, resulting in insufficient translation accuracy and adaptability. This paper adopts a converter model to construct a translation architecture, which effectively processes complex language structures using its self-attention mechanism while receiving and processing network language data in real-time, ensuring the efficiency of data flow. The introduction of incremental learning mechanism enables the model to dynamically absorb new language features, and in the process of continuously inputting new data, the translation results can be continuously optimised. The experimental results show that the incremental learning model outperforms the traditional model in bilingual evaluation understudy (BLEU) score and accuracy, and significantly outperforms the traditional model in training time (5 hours) and average translation time (0.4 seconds).

  • Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of MOOC English teaching quality based on improved entropy method   Order a copy of this article
    by Yifan Liang 
    Abstract: In the practical application of MOOC English teaching quality evaluation, the entropy method exhibits high sensitivity to the degree of data dispersion. Once the sample data presents a local concentration trend or is disturbed by extreme values, it will cause an imbalance in the allocation of indicator weights, ultimately undermining the evaluation accuracy. Therefore, a research on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of MOOC English teaching quality based on improved entropy method is proposed. In this method, an evaluation index system is constructed for MOOC English teaching quality, and grey relational analysis is conducted to screen indicators. Then indicator data is collected, and outlier cleaning is performed to ensure data quality. Subsequently, with processed indicator data as input, the entropy method is used to determine indicator weights, and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method is applied to improve indicator weights. Based on the determined indicator weights, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of MOOC English teaching quality is completed. The results show that this method can effectively determine key evaluation indicators, with a high sensitivity coefficient of 1.97, the highest evaluation accuracy of 0.98, and the highest evaluation time of 3.792 seconds, demonstrating a good evaluation performance.

    Abstract: To address the issues of low accuracy and poor compatibility in empirical research on learning behaviour intention under curriculum reform, a method for empirical research on learning behaviour intention is designed based on the technology acceptance model (TAM). Firstly, the TAM theoretical framework was constructed to clarify the key elements in the model. Then, a questionnaire was designed to measure the actual performance of research variables among learners and research hypotheses were proposed accordingly. Finally, a reliability and validity analysis was conducted on the questionnaire, and Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used to verify the research hypothesis, thus clarifying the causal and quantitative relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable (learning behaviour intention). Experimental results demonstrate that the accuracy and compatibility of TAM-based model proposed in this study consistently remain above 90% in empirical study of learning behavioural intentions under curriculum reform. Empirical research reveals high accuracy and compatibility, along with good efficiency in studying learning behaviour willingness.
