Abstract

Video recommendation systems in e-learning platforms are a specific type of recommendation system that use algorithms to suggest educational videos to students based on their interests and preferences. Student’s written feedback or reviews can provide more detailed about the educational video, including its strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, we build education video recommender system based on learners’ reviews. We use LDA topic model on textual data extracted from educational videos to train language modle as an input to supervised CNN model. Additionally, we used latent factor modle on extracts the educational videos’ features and learner preference from learners’ historical data as an output CNN model. In Our proposed technique, we hybrid user ratings and reviews to tackle sparsity and cold start problem in recommender system. Our recommender use user review to suggest a new recommended videos, but in case there is no review (empty cell in matrix factorization) or unclear comment then we will take user rating on that educational video. We work on real-world big and heterogynous dataset from coursera. Result shows that new production rating from learners reviews can be used to make good new recommended videos to student that not previously seen and reduce cold start and sparsity problem affects.
