Abstract

Nowadays, the evaluation of students’ learning effect in colleges and universities mainly rely on manual management and supervision, which is inefficient and inaccurate. What’s worse, it completely depends on the subjective judgment of the supervisors, many potential teaching quality data could be ignored. Using an unsupervised classroom monitoring system based on deep learning can master the learner’s learning result. This paper mainly researched a learner’s behavior evaluation method based on deep learning. Firstly, MTCNN is being used to detected learner’s facial feature in order to confirm their identification. Then, collected the data set in learning environment and a Mosaic data enhancement had been done. Later, an improved method, is proposed. Identifying the students’ actions of playing the mobile phone, moving to classroom, eating, reading, writing, this method has more advantages on classroom behavior detecting. In addition, by building a quantitative evaluation method–CFIndex (class focus index), the time of students' behaviors in classroom has been calculated. Therefore, CFIndex evaluation method can well reflect the real performance of students in the classroom. In this paper, compared with Fast R-CNN and classical algorithm on the same data set, the proposed method has better performance in classroom behavior detection, and it can better reflect the students’ real actions in the classroom, it has certain meaning of theoretical guidance.
