Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use adaptive teaching with local, state-dependent learner preferences | 2-Rec teaching · 2-Rec | teaching complexity | Helped |
| Use adaptive teaching instead of non-adaptive teaching | Lattice teaching with local preferences · Lattice | teaching complexity: at most 3(b-a) vs. at least 4(b-a) | Helped |
| Use adaptive teaching instead of non-adaptive teaching | 2-Rec teaching with local preferences · 2-Rec | teaching complexity: \Theta(\log|r_{2}|) vs. \Theta(|r_{2}|) | Helped |
| Use an adaptive teacher rather than a non-adaptive teacher | State-independent preference learners · Version space learners | teaching complexity | No clear effect |
| Use Ada-R rather than SC | Simulated noisy learners · 2-Rec, noisy setting | teaching complexity | Helped |
| Use Ada-R rather than SC | Human learners · 2-Rec teaching scenarios | number of teaching examples | Helped |
| Use SC rather than Ada-R | Human learners with targets in H² · 2-Rec, H¹→H² and H²→H² | number of teaching examples | No clear effect |
| Use local preferences that depend on the learner's current hypothesis | Version space teaching · 2-Rec and Lattice | adaptivity gain | Helped |
| Require ties among the learner's local preferences | Adaptive teaching · State-dependent preference models | adaptivity gain | Helped |
