Falmagne, Jean-Claude.
Learning Spaces Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics / [electronic resource] : by Jean-Claude Falmagne, Jean-Paul Doignon. - XV, 417p. 60 illus., 30 illus. in color. online resource.
Overview and Mathematical Glossary -- Knowledge Structures and Learning Spaces -- Knowledge Spaces -- Well-Graded Families -- Surmise Systems -- Skill Maps, Labels and Filters -- Entailments and the Maximal Mesh -- Galois Connections -- Descriptive and Assessment Languages -- Greedoids, Learning Spaces, and Antimatroids -- Learning Spaces and Media -- Probabilistic Knowledge Structures -- Stochastic Learning Paths -- A Continuous Markov Procedure -- A Markov Chain Procedure -- Building a Knowledge Structure -- Building a Learning Space -- Applications -- Open Problems.
Learning spaces offer a rigorous mathematical foundation for various practical systems of knowledge assessment. An example is offered by the ALEKS system (Assessment and LEarning in Knowledge Spaces), a software for the assessment of mathematical knowledge. From a mathematical standpoint, learning spaces as well as knowledge spaces (which made the title of the first edition) generalize partially ordered sets. They are investigated both from a combinatorial and a stochastic viewpoint. The results are applied to real and simulated data. The book gives a systematic presentation of research and extends the results to new situations. It is of interest to mathematically oriented readers in education, computer science and combinatorics at research and graduate levels. The text contains numerous examples and exercises, and an extensive bibliography.
