用联邦学习实现教育评分隐私保护,本地训练不传数据。

Privacy-Preserved Automated Scoring using Federated Learning for Educational Research

  • 各校本地训练大模型,只上传参数更新。
  • 准确率达94.5%,接近中心化模型表现。
  • 适合关注数据隐私的教育研究者。

教育研究中的数据隐私仍是关键挑战,传统匿名化与集中式数据收集易暴露原始学生数据并带来巨大运维负担。本文提出一种基于联邦学习(FL)的自动化评分框架,无需跨机构共享敏感数据。通过低秩适配(LoRA)实现大语言模型(LLM)的参数高效微调,各客户端(学校)在本地训练,仅交换优化后的模型参数更新。针对数据异构性问题,采用结合客户端性能与数据量的自适应加权聚合策略。在来自九所中学的九年级科学评估数据上进行测试,该方法在多标签评分任务中达到94.5%的最高准确率,相较中心化模型仅低0.5–1.0个百分点,且在评分标准匹配度上仅差1.3%,平均绝对误差更低,表明其在保持预测精度与可解释性方面具有显著优势。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Data privacy remains a critical concern in educational research, requiring strict adherence to ethical standards and regulatory protocols. While traditional approaches rely on anonymization and centralized data collection, they often expose raw student data to security vulnerabilities and impose substantial logistical overhead. In this study, we propose a federated learning (FL) framework for automated scoring of educational assessments that eliminates the need to share sensitive data across institutions. Our approach leverages parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs) with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), enabling each client (school) to train locally while sharing only optimized model updates. To address data heterogeneity, we implement an adaptive weighted aggregation strategy that considers both client performance and data volume. We benchmark our model against two state-of-the-art FL methods and a centralized learning baseline using NGSS-aligned multi-label science assessment data from nine middle schools. Results show that our model achieves the highest accuracy (94.5%) among FL approaches, and performs within 0.5-1.0 percentage points of the centralized model on these metrics. Additionally, it achieves comparable rubric-level scoring accuracy, with only a 1.3% difference in rubric match and a lower score deviation (MAE), highlighting its effectiveness in preserving both prediction quality and interpretability.
