The field of education has undergone a significant revolution with the advent of intelligent systems and technology, which aim to personalize the learning experience, catering to the unique needs and abilities of individual learners. In this pursuit, a fundamental challenge is designing proper test for assessing the students' cognitive status on knowledge and skills accurately and efficiently. One promising approach, referred to as Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT), is to administrate computer-automated tests that alternately select the next item for each examinee and estimate their cognitive states given their responses to the selected items. Nevertheless, existing CAT systems suffer from inflexibility in item selection and ineffectiveness in cognitive state estimation, respectively. In this article, we propose a Model-Agnostic adaptive testing framework via Meta-leaned Gradient Embeddings, MAMGE for short, improving both item selection and cognitive state estimation simultaneously. For item selection, we design a Gradient Embedding-based Item Selector (GEIS) which incorporates the concept of gradient embeddings to represent items and selects the best ones that are both informative and representative. For cognitive state estimation, we propose a Meta-learned Cognitive State Estimator (MCSE) to automatically control the estimation process by learning to learn a proper initialization and dynamically inferred updates. Both MCSE and GEIS are inherently model-agnostic, and the two modules have an ingenious connection via meta-learned gradient embeddings. Finally, extensive experiments evaluate the effectiveness and flexibility of MAMGE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
