dc.description.abstract | In this thesis an algorithm is designed to generate questions and answers au-
tomatically and randomly using Freebase to be used in an online knowledge
game, called Game of Gums. In this game, a player chooses a topic based on
his/her interest and answers to some questions in order to go further steps
in the game.
Freebase is a knowledge base contains millions of entities in different
domains. By accessing Freebase data by using Freebase APIs, we can read
Freebase data and use entities and their properties for generating questions
and answers. Questions in this game are in different category levels of :
\Easy", \Medium", and \Hard". These categories are created based on
the score of entity that are assigned to that during indexing. The score
shows the popularity and number of incoming and/or outgoing links to each
entity. Furthermore, a Java program was implemented for each question
and corresponding answers using NetBeans IDE.
Finally, surveys are designed and have been sent to interested volunteers
in each topic to evaluate quiz questions. The results of these studies were
discussed afterward. The results show that most of the respondents could
answer easy questions while least of them answer hard ones.
All these steps are explained in this thesis in great detail. | nb_NO |
