DLSU RESEARCHERS WERE AMONG THE FILIPINO INNOVATORS WHO SHOWCASED THEIR PROJECTS during the third leg of the Science and Innovation Budding Opportunities for Leverage (SIBOL) webinar series organized by the Department of Science and Technology – Philippine Council for Industry, Energy, and Emerging Technology Research and Development (DOST-PCIEERD).
Held last August 10, the online event featured resource speakers from different institutions, agencies, organizations, and the academe.
One of the DLSU projects is the “Development of Framework and Materials for Distance and Remote Learning via Datacasting” by Dr. Raymund Sison, full professor of the Software Technology Department.
This project aims to develop a framework for the design and delivery of lessons and learning materials for distance and remote learning via datacasting in the Philippine setting.
The framework will be based on theories of distance education and online learning, taking into consideration Philippine realities and the new datacasting modality, which, even in the US, is still in the earliest stage of piloting in the education sector.
Using the framework, lessons and learning materials for Grade 6 mathematics, English, and science will be designed, developed, and evaluated in an iterative manner. The lessons and materials development process will also overlap with the deployment and quasi-experimental and thematic-analytical evaluation processes.
The other DLSU research is titled, “CRADLE2020: Diachronic Representation and Linguistic Study of Filipino Word Senses Across Social and Digital Media Contexts” by Dr. Briane Paul Samson, also of the Software Technology Department.
Samson’s project will generate and train diachronic representations of Filipino words and senses by creating a contextual representation of words and temporal multiplex networks from multiple sources of data that spans different domains and time periods, which will be compiled into a Filipino WordNet.
Historical emergence of polysemy will be analyzed, as well as the semantic shifts across social contexts and different digital media sources.
Finally, the effectiveness and applicability of the new linguistic resources will be validated by training the Natural Language API of Senti AI with the diachronic embeddings and Filipino word representations to improve their services.
The SIBOL webinar series is a monthly presentation to the public of new projects and programs that DOST-PCIEERD is funding. It seeks to create awareness on the promising new projects and their potential impacts on society.
