Prompt- and Trait Relation-aware Cross-prompt Essay Trait Scoring (ProTACT)

This repository is the implementation of the ProTACT architecture, introduced in the paper, Prompt- and Trait Relation-aware Cross-prompt Essay Trait Scoring (ACL Findings 2023).

Our code is based on the open source, https://github.com/robert1ridley/cross-prompt-trait-scoring (Ridley, 2021).

    abstract = "Automated essay scoring (AES) aims to score essays written for a given prompt, which defines the writing topic. Most existing AES systems assume to grade essays of the same prompt as used in training and assign only a holistic score. However, such settings conflict with real-education situations; pre-graded essays for a particular prompt are lacking, and detailed trait scores of sub-rubrics are required. Thus, predicting various trait scores of unseen-prompt essays (called cross-prompt essay trait scoring) is a remaining challenge of AES. In this paper, we propose a robust model: prompt- and trait relation-aware cross-prompt essay trait scorer. We encode prompt-aware essay representation by essay-prompt attention and utilizing the topic-coherence feature extracted by the topic-modeling mechanism without access to labeled data; therefore, our model considers the prompt adherence of an essay, even in a cross-prompt setting. To facilitate multi-trait scoring, we design trait-similarity loss that encapsulates the correlations of traits. Experiments prove the efficacy of our model, showing state-of-the-art results for all prompts and traits. Significant improvements in low-resource-prompt and inferior traits further indicate our model{'}s strength.",

Package Requirements

Install below packages in your virtual environment before running the code.

  • python==3.7.11
  • tensorflow=2.0.0
  • numpy=1.18.1
  • nltk=3.4.5
  • pandas=1.0.5
  • scikit-learn=0.22.1

Download GloVe

For prompt word embedding, we use the pretrained GloVe embedding.

Run ProTACT (Do, 2023)

This bash script will run each model 5 times with different seeds ([12, 22, 32, 42, 52]).

  • bash ./train_ProTACT.sh

Note that every run does not produce the same results due to the random elements.

Run baseline (Ridley, 2021)

This bash script will run each model 5 times with different seeds ([12, 22, 32, 42, 52]).

  • bash ./train_CTS.sh
