A Keyword-Based Technique to Evaluate Broad Question Answer Script

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Evaluation is the method of assessing and determining the educational system through various techniques such as verbal or viva-voice test, subjective or objective written test. This paper presents an efficient solution to evaluate the subjective answer script electronically. In this paper, we proposed and implemented an integrated system that examines and evaluates the written answer script. This article focuses on finding the keywords from the answer script and then compares them with the keywords that have been parsed from both open and closed domain. The system also checks the grammatical and spelling errors in the answer script. Our proposed system tested with answer scripts of 100 students and gives precision score 0.91.


ISI To Use AI/ML For Checking Exam Papers, Removing Biases

#artificialintelligence

In a move that can change the way exams are conducted as well as scored, the Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) is planning to use an artificial intelligence-powered method (AI/ML) to automate the evaluation of the students' answer scripts. According to a noted national newspaper, the ISI is planning to use machine learning-based (AI/ML) system that will be programmed to analyse even subjective questions like essay writing, where a student's creative writing skills can be assessed. Officials have also suggested that one of the main objectives behind this move is to make sure that these exams are free of biases. Under the new system, the students will have to write the answers on tablets using a special type of pen, instead of submitting physical papers. A two-day workshop on machine learning and its application to pattern recognition started at the ISI on Thursday.
