More details about the task and datasets can be found at our project webpage. The raw data crawled from MIT OpenCourseWare can be found under data_raw/.
Please cite the above papers if you end up using our code and/or datasets.
Concept graph automatically induced from MIT OpenCourseWare:
To conduct cross-validation using plain CGL, run
matlab -r main
Configurations of the program are located at config.m. To allow graph transduction, set
opt.transductive = false;
To carry out sparse CGL, set
opt.algorithm = @cgl_rank_sparse;
