Cuff-KT: Tackling Learners' Real-time Learning Pattern Adjustment via Tuning-Free Knowledge State Guided Model Updating
- 通过控制器与生成器实现无微调的个性化参数更新
- 在5个数据集上平均提升AUC 10%(同学习者)和4%(跨学习者)
- 适合需要快速响应学习行为变化的智能辅导系统
知识追踪(KT)是智能辅导系统的核心,用于建模学习者知识状态以预测未来表现并提供个性化支持。传统KT模型假设学习者短期能力相对稳定或按可预测方式变化,但现实中受认知疲劳、动机和外部压力等因素影响,学习能力呈现不规则波动,称为实时学习模式调整(RLPA)。现有模型面对RLPA适应性不足,因无法及时捕捉学习者动态变化;当前增强适应性的策略依赖重训练,导致严重过拟合和高时间开销。为此,我们提出Cuff-KT,由控制器和生成器组成:控制器为学习者赋值评分,生成器为选定学习者生成个性化参数。该方法无需微调即可快速灵活地适应数据变化。在五个不同学科的数据集上实验表明,Cuff-KT显著提升五种不同结构的KT模型在同学习者和跨学习者迁移下的性能,平均相对提升AUC分别为10%和4%,且时间成本可忽略,有效应对RLPA任务。代码与数据集已开源。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Knowledge Tracing (KT) is a core component of Intelligent Tutoring Systems, modeling learners' knowledge state to predict future performance and provide personalized learning support. Traditional KT models assume that learners' learning abilities remain relatively stable over short periods or change in predictable ways based on prior performance. However, in reality, learners' abilities change irregularly due to factors like cognitive fatigue, motivation, and external stress -- a task introduced, which we refer to as Real-time Learning Pattern Adjustment (RLPA). Existing KT models, when faced with RLPA, lack sufficient adaptability, because they fail to timely account for the dynamic nature of different learners' evolving learning patterns. Current strategies for enhancing adaptability rely on retraining, which leads to significant overfitting and high time overhead issues. To address this, we propose Cuff-KT, comprising a controller and a generator. The controller assigns value scores to learners, while the generator generates personalized parameters for selected learners. Cuff-KT controllably adapts to data changes fast and flexibly without fine-tuning. Experiments on five datasets from different subjects demonstrate that Cuff-KT significantly improves the performance of five KT models with different structures under intra- and inter-learner shifts, with an average relative increase in AUC of 10% and 4%, respectively, at a negligible time cost, effectively tackling RLPA task. Our code and datasets are fully available at https://github.com/zyy-2001/Cuff-KT.
