Dr. Yu Lu, Director of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, introducing the work of the Center

At the conference, Dr. Yu Lu introduced the educational robot based on the SDT (Self-determination Theory) motivation theory as design principles and the application of voice interaction, knowledge graph, emotion recognition and other technologies, and showed the video of the robot in learning scene. Which aroused strong interest of the audience.

Participants reading research posters and communicating with research team

Dr. Penghe Chen shared research project on the educational knowledge graph construction: An Automatic Knowledge Graph Construction System for K-12 Education. Dr. Chen mainly introduced the educational concept recognition through the CRF model and the concept relation recognition using probabilistic association rule mining algorithm. By taking mathematics as an example, a demonstrative knowledge graph was presented. Many scholars were interested in the educational knowledge graph, and conducted in-depth communication and with Dr. Chen.
