Learning Instance Weights in Multi-Instance Learning
(The University of Waikato, 2008)Multi-instance (MI) learning is a variant of supervised machine learning, where each learning example contains a bag of instances instead of just a single feature vector. MI learning has applications in areas such as drug ... -
Learning journals leading to authentic learning in a hospitality context
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)There is a call for more reflective practices in hospitality education to deliver authentic learning. This article evaluates a learning journal assessment that stimulates both real-world relevance and experience and documents ... -
Learning language using genetic algorithms
(Springer, 1996)Strict pattern-based methods of grammar induction are often frustrated by the apparently inexhaustible variety of novel word combinations in large corpora. Statistical methods offer a possible solution by allowing frequent ... -
Learning later in life
(Stylus Publishing, 2017)The phrase "learning in later life" has assumed major significance for educators and allied professionals in their efforts to understand the dynamics of learning for older people across the globe. In earlier times, the ... -
Learning legal reasoning while rejecting the oxymoronic status of feminist judicial rationalities: a view from the law classroom
(The Association of Law Teachers, 2012)One misconception accompanying the idea of a feminist judgment is that feminist judgment is inherently at odds with the putative neutrality of the "judge" as a "neutral" adjudicator. Many lawyers, scholars and law students ... -
Learning linkages between projects and work placements in engineering education
(The University of Waikato, 2023)This research study investigated the combined learning linkages of engineering projects (Problem-Based Learning [PBL]) and work placements (Work-Integrated Learning [WIL]) in engineering education in New Zealand. The ... -
Learning objects and the development of students’ key competencies: A New Zealand school experience
(Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education, 2010)This paper outlines a study investigating the impact of the use of learning objects on the development of two key competencies from the revised New Zealand Curriculum Framework (Ministry of Education, 2007). It specifically ... -
Learning outcome dependency on contemporary ICT in the New Zealand middle school classroom
(ACM, 2011)Often studies of children's technology use in the classroom is internally focused and small scale. This study attempts a globalised exploratory overview of an entire New Zealand middle school to understand the technology ... -
Learning perspectives: Implications for pedagogy in science education
(Wilf Malcolm Institute of Education Research, UoW, Hamilton, New Zealand, 2015)How we understand learning has implications for the learning outcomes we value and how we seek to achieve them particularly when we want to do something about learning. In this paper I outline, albeit briefly, the implications ... -
Learning perspectives: Implications for pedagogy in science education.
(Faculty of Education, University of Waikato, 2003)How we understand learning has implications for the learning outcomes we value and how we seek to achieve them particularly when we want to do something about learning. In this paper I outline, albeit briefly, the implications ... -
Learning Petri net models of non-linear gene interactions
(Elsevier Science Publishers B.V., 2005)Understanding how an individual's genetic make-up influences their risk of disease is a problem of paramount importance. Although machine-learning techniques are able to uncover the relationships between genotype and ... -
Learning regexes to extract router names from hostnames
(ACM Press, 2019)We present the design, implementation, evaluation, and validation of a system that automatically learns to extract router names (router identifiers) from hostnames stored by network operators in different DNS zones, which ... -
Learning science and technology through cooperative education.
(APJCE, 2007)Cooperative education, a form of experiential or work‐integrated learning is common in tertiary educational institutions worldwide. However, in New Zealand few institutions provide work‐integrated learning programs in ... -
Learning structure from sequences, with applications in a digital library
(Springer, 2002)The services that digital libraries provide to users can be greatly enhanced by automatically gleaning certain kinds of information from the full text of the documents they contain. This paper reviews some recent work that ... -
Learning threshold concepts in an undergraduate engineering flipped classroom
(DEANZ, 2016)Given that the current goals for tertiary education is to better prepare students to apply their disciplinary knowledge in the real world and novel situations, it is imperative that students master the necessary disciplinary ... -
Learning through 'being' and 'doing'
(Sage Publications, 2007)Our research may not emerge in the tidy, linear manner often described in research papers, and hoped for outcomes may never eventuate. Amid this seeming confusion, researchers may experience personal discomfort and perceptions ... -
Learning through cooperative education work placements in science and technology
(The University of Waikato, 2003)Cooperative education (co-op) is a strategy of education that includes a requirement for successful completion of both formal classwork and work placements to gain a qualification. The work placements immerse the student ... -
Learning Through Utility Optimization in Regression Tasks
(IEEE, 2017)Accounting for misclassification costs is important in many practical applications of machine learning, and cost-sensitive techniques for classification have been studied extensively. Utility-based learning provides a ... -
Learning to be leaders in higher education: What helps or hinders women’s advancement as leaders in universities
(SAGE, 2011)This article examines 110 reported incidents from an online survey of 26 women from each of the eight universities in New Zealand. They responded to questions asking them to describe times when work and non-work situations ... -
Learning to describe data in actions
(1995)Traditional machine learning algorithms have failed to serve the needs of systems for Programming by Demonstration (PBD), which require interaction with a user (a teacher) and a task environment. We argue that traditional ...
