• Abstract: This chapter explores the evolution of data-driven hint generation for intelligent tutoring systems (ITS). The Hint Factory and Interaction Networks have enabled the generation of next-step hints, waypoints, and strategic subgoals from historical student data. Data-driven techniques have also enabled systems to find the right time to provide hints. We explore further potential data-driven adaptations for problem solving based on behavioral problem solving data and the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs).

  Signal processing, communications, and control have traditionally relied on classical statistical modeling techniques. Deep neural networks (DNNs) use generic architectures which learn to operate from data, and demonstrate excellent performance. We are interested in hybrid techniques that combine principled mathematical models with data-driven systems to benefit from the advantages of both approaches.
