Method and apparatus for learner diagnosis using reliability of cognitive diagnostic model

Abstract

Provided are an apparatus and method for learner diagnosis using reliability of a cognitive diagnostic model, which estimates the reliability of the cognitive diagnostic model that estimates a concept vector (α) of a learner through a Q-matrix regarding a question and an R-matrix regarding a response to a question, the method including assuming a probability (P(X|α)) of a learner response (X) when a concept vector (α) of a learner is given; obtaining a concept pattern-specific probability (P(α|X)) of the learner from the assumed concept vector and learner response of the learner; obtaining an information entropy (H) value of the learner from the concept pattern-specific probability (P(α|X)) of the learner; and obtaining reliability (γ) of an estimated result of a learner-specific concept understanding using the information entropy value of the learner and a number of concepts.
