Short Answer Grading Using String Similarity And Corpus-Based Similarity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most automatic scoring systems use pattern based that requires a lot of hard and tedious work. These systems work in a supervised manner where predefined patterns and scoring rules are generated. This paper presents a different unsupervised approach which deals with students’ answers holistically using text to text similarity. Different String-based and Corpus-based similarity measures were tested separately and then combined to achieve a maximum correlation value of 0.504. The achieved correlation is the best value achieved for unsupervised approach Bag of Words (BOW) when compared to previous work. Keywords-Automatic Scoring; Short Answer Grading; Semantic Similarity; String Similarity; Corpus-Based Similarity.

متن کاملText-to-Text Semantic Similarity for Automatic Short Answer Grading
In this paper, we explore unsupervised techniques for the task of automatic short answer grading. We compare a number of knowledge-based and corpus-based measures of text similarity, evaluate the effect of domain and size on the corpus-based measures, and also introduce a novel technique to improve the performance of the system by integrating automatic feedback from the student answers. Overall...

متن کاملIdentifying Quora question pairs having the same intent
This paper presents a system which uses a combination of multiple text similarity measures of varying complexities to classify Quora question pairs as duplicate or different. The solution uses a support vector classifier model trained using the precomputed features ranging from longest common sub-string and sub sequences to word similarity based on lexical and semantic resources. The scope of t...
