Adaptive E-learning content generation based on semantic web technology

OntAWare is described, which provides an environment comprising a set of software tools that support learning content authoring, management and delivery, and which exploits an opportunity provided by the emerging technologies of the Semantic Web movement.

Abstract

Individuals increasingly rely on social media to discuss health-related issues. One way to provide easier access to relevant in- formation is through sentiment analysis - classifying text into polarity classes such as positive and negative. In this paper, we generated freely available datasets of WebMD.com drug reviews and star ratings for Common, Cancer, Depression, Diabetes, and Hypertension drugs. We explored four supervised learning models: Naive Bayes, Random Forests, Support Vector Machines, and Convolutional Neural Networks for the purpose of determining the polarity of drug reviews. We conducted inter-domain and cross-domain evaluations. We found that SVM obtained the highest f-measure on average and that cross-domain training produced similar or higher results to models trained directly on their respective datasets.
