Computational Cognitive Models of Summarization Assessment Skills
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a general computational cognitive model of the way a summary is assessed by teachers. It is based on models of two subprocesses: determining the importance of sentences and guessing the cognitive rules that the student may have used. All models are based on Latent Semantic Analysis, a computational model of the representation of the meaning of words and sentences. Models' performances are compared with data from an experiment conducted with 278 middle school students. The general model was implemented in a learning environment designed for helping students to write summaries.

Cognitive Assessment Models with Few Assumptions, and Connections with Nonparametric IRT
In recent years, as cognitive theories of learning and instruction have become richer, and computational methods to support assessment have become more powerful, there has been increasing pressure to make assessments truly criterion referenced, that is, to “report” on student achievement relative to theory-driven lists of examinee skills, beliefs and other cognitive features needed to perform t...
متن کاملAn Optimization Approach to Automatic Generic Document Summarization
In this paper, we have presented an optimization approach to document summarization. The potential of optimization based document summarization models has not been well explored to date. This is partially the difficulty to formulate the criteria used for objective assessment. We modeled document summarization as the linear and nonlinear optimization problems. These models generally attempt simu...
متن کاملApplying Learning Factors Analysis to Build Stereotypic Student Models
This paper demonstrates how stereotypic student groups can be created to enhance cognitive models in computer tutors. Computer tutors use cognitive models to track what skills students are learning and what practice attempts are most needed; often, these models contain relatively few individualized student parameters due to computational concerns. A hybrid approach emphasizing tractability and ...
متن کاملTowards Improving Abstractive Summarization via Entailment Generation
Abstractive summarization, the task of rewriting and compressing a document into a short summary, has achieved considerable success with neural sequence-tosequence models. However, these models can still benefit from stronger natural language inference skills, since a correct summary is logically entailed by the input document, i.e., it should not contain any contradictory or unrelated informat...
متن کاملProviding adaptive support for meta-cognitive skills to improve learning
We describe a computational framework designed to provide adaptive support for learning from problem solving activities that make worked-out examples available. This framework targets several meta-cognitive skills required to learn effectively in this type of instructional setting, including explanation-based-learning-ofcorrectness and min-analogy. The generated interventions are based on an as...
