2. Wheelspin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelspin

   Wheelspin. A wheelspin occurs when the force delivered to the tire tread exceeds that of available tread-to-surface friction and one or more tires lose traction. This leads the wheels to "spin" and causes the driver to lose control over the tires that no longer have grip on the road surface. Wheelspin can also be done intentionally such as in ...

   Prior research has focused on predicting and modeling wheel-spinning, but there has been little work on how to best help students stuck in wheel-spinning. We use past student system interaction data and a minimal amount of expert input to automatically inform individualized interventions, without needing experts to label a large dataset of ...

   among the multiple wheel spinning criteria, features, and models that have been proposed, across multiple evaluation criteria (e.g., earliness, precision, and generalizability) and datasets. In our experiments, we constructed six wheel spin-ning detectors and compared their performance under two di erent wheel spinning criteria with three ...
