Automated Knowledge Component Generation for Interpretable Knowledge Tracing in Coding Problems

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2502.18632v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Knowledge components (KCs) mapped to problems help model student learning, tracking their mastery levels on fine-grained skills thereby facilitating personalized learning and feedback in online learning platforms. However, crafting and tagging KCs to problems, traditionally performed by human domain experts, is highly labor intensive. We present an automated, LLM-based pipeline for KC generation and tagging for open-ended programming problems.
