Can LLMs Estimate Student Struggles? Human-AI Difficulty Alignment with Proficiency Simulation for Item Difficulty Prediction

Ming Li, Han Chen, Yunze Xiao +3

Accurate estimation of item (question or task) difficulty is critical for educational assessment but suffers from the cold start problem. While Large Language Models demonstrate su…

RuleR: Improving LLM Controllability by Rule-based Data Recycling

Ming Li, Han Chen, Chenguang Wang +3

Large language models (LLMs) still lack delicate controllability over their responses, which is critical to enhancing their performance and the user experience. However, curating s…
