Madnani, Nitin; Burstein, Jill; Sabatini, John; O'Reilly, Tenaha – Grantee Submission, 2013
We introduce a cognitive framework for measuring reading comprehension that includes the use of novel summary-writing tasks. We derive NLP features from the holistic rubric used to score the summaries written by students for such tasks and use them to design a preliminary, automated scoring system. Our results show that the automated approach…
