Abstract
Auto-Generated Test Paper (AGTP) has been deeply studied for many years, however, it is still a difficult problem and the certainty to access the best test paper (TP) is not guaranteed yet. In this paper, we put forward a method for AGTP based on knowledge embedding, which makes AGTP easier and faster. The knowledge to be embedded is studied and the mechanism behind it is analyzed. The embedded knowledge in this paper is from both the constraints of TP and the information of question repository (QR). The experiments validated the proposed method and found it is not only faster but also costs less computational resources to access the best TP than other method, such as evolutionary algorithm. What impressed is that the cost time to access the optimum does not rapidly increase with the size of QR. The knowledge plays the important role in AGTP, especially to efficiently improve the performance of the algorithms.
