Scoring Essays Automatically Using Surface Features
Surface features of essays include nonlinguistic characteristics such as total number of words per essay (essay length), sentence length, and word length as well as linguistic characteristics such as the total number of grammatical errors, the types of grammatical errors, or the kinds of grammatical constructions (e.g., passive or active) that appear in an essay. This study examines the feasibi...
متن کاملCoarse-grained Argumentation Features for Scoring Persuasive Essays
Scoring the quality of persuasive essays is an important goal of discourse analysis, addressed most recently with highlevel persuasion-related features such as thesis clarity, or opinions and their targets. We investigate whether argumentation features derived from a coarse-grained argumentative structure of essays can help predict essays scores. We introduce a set of argumentation features rel...
متن کاملAutomatically Grading Essays with Markit
Markit is an Automated Essay Grading (AEG) system capable of running on typical desktop PC platforms. Its performance compares favourably with human graders and with commercially available systems. A distinct advantage of Markit over existing commercial systems is that it requires only one model answer against which the student essays are compared. In this paper we report on a trial of Markit w...
متن کاملScoring Persuasive Essays Using Opinions and their Targets
In this work, we investigate whether the analysis of opinion expressions can help in scoring persuasive essays. For this, we develop systems that predict holistic essay scores based on features extracted from opinion expressions, topical elements, and their combinations. Experiments on test taker essays show that essay scores produced using opinion features are indeed correlated with human scor...

In this work, we propose a novel representation of text based on patterns derived from linguistic annotation graphs.

This process generates a very large number of features, many of which are highly correlated. We propose a genetic programming based approach to feature constructio...
