Automatically constructing concept maps based on fuzzy rules for adapting learning systems

In recent years, some methods have been presented for dealing with concept maps construction for providing the adaptive learning guidance to students. In this paper, we present a new method to automatically construct concept maps based oil fuzzy rules and students' testing records. We apply fuzzy rules and fuzzy reasoning techniques to automatically construct concept maps and evaluate the relevance degrees between concepts. The proposed method provides a useful way to automatically construct concept maps in adaptive learning systems. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
