Abstract
Intelligent learning diagnosis is a critical engine of smart education, which aims to estimate learners' current knowledge mastery status and predict their future learning performance. The significant challenge with traditional learning diagnosis methods is the inability to balance diagnostic accuracy and interpretability. To settle the above problem, the proposed unified interpretable intelligent learning diagnosis framework, which benefits from the powerful representation learning ability of deep learning and the interpretability of psychometric, achieves good performance of learning prediction and provides interpretability from three aspects: cognitive parameters, learner-resource response network, and weights of self-attention mechanism. Within the proposed framework, this paper proposes a two-channel learning diagnosis mechanism LDM-ID as well as a three-channel learning diagnosis mechanism LDM-HMI. Experiments on two real-world datasets and a simulation dataset show that our method has higher accuracy in predicting learners' performances compared with the state-of-the-art models, and can provide valuable educational interpretabilities for applications such as precise learning resource recommendation and personalized learning tutoring in smart education.
