Abstract EN
In traditional Web-based learning systems, due to insufficient learning behaviors analysis and personalized study guides, a few user clustering algorithms are introduced.
While analyzing the behaviors with these algorithms, researchers generally focus on continuous data but easily neglect discrete data, each of which is generated from online learning actions.
Moreover, there are implicit coupled interactions among the data but are frequently ignored in the introduced algorithms.
Therefore, a mass of significant information which can positively affect clustering accuracy is neglected.
To solve the above issues, we proposed a coupled user clustering algorithm for Wed-based learning systems by taking into account both discrete and continuous data, as well as intracoupled and intercoupled interactions of the data.
The experiment result in this paper demonstrates the outperformance of the proposed algorithm.
