Each test is personalized for each student and is composed of a series of questions, classified on different domains (e.g. maths, science, logic, etc.). Since each test is unique for composition, it is crucial to guarantee a similar level of difficulty for all the tests in a session. For this reason, to each question, it is assigned a level of difficulty from a domain expert. Thus, the general difficultness of a test depends on the correct classification of each item. We propose two approaches to detect outliers. A visualization-based approach using dynamic filter and responsive visual widgets. A data mining approach to evaluate the performance of the different questions for five years. We used clustering to group the questions according to a set of performance indicators to provide labeling of the data-driven level of difficulty. The measured level is compared with the a priori assigned by experts. The misclassifications are then highlighted to the expert, who will be able to refine the question or the classification. Sequential pattern mining is used to check if biases are present in the composition of the tests and their performance. This analysis is meant to exclude overlaps or direct dependencies among questions. Analyzing co-occurrences we are able to state that the composition of each test is fair and uniform for all the students, even on several sessions. The analytical results are presented to the expert through a visual web application that loads the analytical data and indicators and composes an interactive dashboard. The user may explore the patterns and models extracted by filtering and changing thresholds and analytical parameters.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riccardo Guidotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giulio Rossetti</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sekerinski, Emil</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreira, Nelma</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, José N.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ratiu, Daniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riccardo Guidotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Farrell, Marie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Luckcuck, Matt</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marmsoler, Diego</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Campos, José</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Astarte, Troy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gonnord, Laure</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cerone, Antonio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Couto, Luis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dongol, Brijesh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kutrib, Martin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monteiro, Pedro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Delmas, David</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">“Know Thyself” How Personal Music Tastes Shape the Last.Fm Online Social Network</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Formal Methods.

The music we listen to reflects our personality, our way to approach life. In order to enforce self-awareness, we devised a Personal Listening Data Model that allows for capturing individual music preferences and patterns of music consumption. We applied our model to 30k users of Last.Fm for which we collected both friendship ties and multiple listening. Starting from such rich data we performed an analysis whose final aim was twofold: (i) capture, and characterize, the individual dimension of music consumption in order to identify clusters of like-minded Last.Fm users; (ii) analyze if, and how, such clusters relate to the social structure expressed by the users in the service. Do there exist individuals having similar Personal Listening Data Models? If so, are they directly connected in the social graph or belong to the same community?.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
