A general framework for intelligent recommender systems

AbstractIn this paper, we propose a general framework for an intelligent recommender system that extends the concept of a knowledge-based recommender system. The intelligent recommender system exploits knowledge, learns, discovers new information, infers preferences and criticisms, among other things. For that, the framework of an intelligent recommender system is defined by the following components: knowledge representation paradigm, learning methods, and reasoning mechanisms. Additionally, it has five knowledge models about the different aspects that we can consider during a recommendation: users, items, domain, context and criticisms. The mix of the components exploits the knowledge, updates it and infers, among other things. In this work, we implement one intelligent recommender system based on this framework, using Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs). Next, we test the performance of the intelligent recommender system with specialized criteria linked to the utilization of the knowledge in order to test the versatility and performance of the framework

Intelligent tutoring Module for a 3Dgame-based science e-learning platform

The three-dimensional (3D) game-based intelligent science tutoring system (GIST) is an e- learning platform for science. The individual complexity of 3D games and conventional intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) results in extra complexities in system design and development of GIST. It is significant to develop practical GIST, not just to seek the powerful ones. The main contribution of this paper is the lightweight modelling of the intelligent tutoring module based on the brief-desire-intention (BDI) framework. The tutoring module, which is implemented by integration of the BDI framework into a game actor, can be able to suggest to each student specific learning tasks based on his/her learning histories. As a study case, algebra-based physics are intentionally chosen as the learning contents in this 3D game-based learning system, since the most of existing 3D game-based learning systems only focused on the qualitative understanding of physical concepts. Our proposed modelling is only based on the BDI reasoning mechanism, so it can be easily extended to obtain practical GIST by using standard game engines

Development of the CMS detector for the CERN LHC Run 3

International audienceSince the initial data taking of the CERN LHC, the CMS experiment has undergone substantial upgrades and improvements. This paper discusses the CMS detector as it is configured for the third data-taking period of the CERN LHC, Run 3, which started in 2022. The entire silicon pixel tracking detector was replaced. A new powering system for the superconducting solenoid was installed. The electronics of the hadron calorimeter was upgraded. All the muon electronic systems were upgraded, and new muon detector stations were added, including a gas electron multiplier detector. The precision proton spectrometer was upgraded. The dedicated luminosity detectors and the beam loss monitor were refurbished. Substantial improvements to the trigger, data acquisition, software, and computing systems were also implemented, including a new hybrid CPU/GPU farm for the high-level trigger
