Classification of Pedagogical content using conventional machine learning and deep learning model
This work addresses the challenge of organizing educational data for researchers, but it is incremental as it applies standard methods to a specific domain.
The paper tackled the problem of classifying pedagogical content from unstructured web data using machine learning, achieving 92.52% accuracy with KNN and 87.71% with LSTM.
The advent of the Internet and a large number of digital technologies has brought with it many different challenges. A large amount of data is found on the web, which in most cases is unstructured and unorganized, and this contributes to the fact that the use and manipulation of this data is quite a difficult process. Due to this fact, the usage of different machine and deep learning techniques for Text Classification has gained its importance, which improved this discipline and made it more interesting for scientists and researchers for further study. This paper aims to classify the pedagogical content using two different models, the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) from the conventional models and the Long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network from the deep learning models. The result indicates that the accuracy of classifying the pedagogical content reaches 92.52 % using KNN model and 87.71 % using LSTM model.
