For example, Feldman and Jones attempted to perform semi-automatic testing of student software under Unix systems 5, Rasmussen et al. exercised a system to evaluate students learning status on computer networks by taking their progress into consideration 22; furthermore, Chou proposed the CATES system 3, which is an interactive testing system developed in a collective and collaborative project with theoretical and practical research on complex technology-dependent learning environments. Unfortunately, although many computer-assisted testing systems have been proposed, few of them have addressed the problem of finding a systematic approach for composing test sheets satisfying multiple assessment requirements. Most of the existing systems construct a test sheet by manually or randomly selecting test items from their item banks. Such manual or random test item selection strategies are inefficient and are hardly able to meet multiple assessment requirements simultaneously.,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,11,Some previous investigations showed that a well-constructed test sheet not only helps evaluate the learning status of the students, but also facilitates the diagnosis of the problems embedded in the learning process 13, 14, 17. That is, it is very critical to select proper test items to constitute a test sheet that meets multiple assessment criteria, including the expected time needed for answering the test sheet, the number of test items, the specified distribution of course concepts to be learned, and the most important, the maximization of the average degree of discrimination 20. Since it is difficult to satisfy multiple requirements (or constraints) in selecting test items, most computerized testing systems generate test sheets in a random fashion (which will be called “random selection” throughout this paper) 16. In 15, a multiple criteria test sheet generating problem is formulated as a dynamic programming model 11 to minimize the distance between the parameters (e.g., discrimination, difficulty, etc.) of the generated test sheets and the objective values subject to the distribution of concept weights.,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,12,Although the dynamic programming approach has taken multiple requirements into consideration, in practical applications, more criteria need to be addressed. For example, a teacher might like to assign a range of test times instead of giving a fixed test time and usually a teacher will assign an expected lower bound for each concept weight instead of giving a distribution of concept weights. Moreover, the goal of a group test is to discriminate the status of the students. This implies that the discrimination degree of the entire test sheet needs to be maximized as much as possible. Another critical issue arising from the use of dynamic programming approach is probably the exceedingly long execution time required for producing optimal solutions. As the time-complexity of the dynamic programming algorithm is exponential in terms of input data, the execution time will become unacceptably long if the number of candidate test items is large.,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,13,To cope with these problems, researchers attempted to formulate a new test sheet-generating problem by optimizing the discrimination degree of the generated test sheets with a specified range of assessment time and some other multiple constraints 16. However, the new formulation is even more complex, previous investigations showed that it is difficult to efficiently find near-optimal solutions when the number of candidate test items is larger then five thousand 16. In the following sections, a model for formulating the problems of finding a set of test items that fit multiple assessment criteria is presented. As the problems are NP-hard, a tabu-based algorithm is proposed to find quality approximate solutions in an acceptable time. Computational experiments will be also presented to study the performances of the proposed algorithms. （最後一段強調(diào)研究動機）,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,14,問題描述及研究方法,問題描述 正式定義面臨的問題 以圖或公式來說明問題的內(nèi)容 最好舉例說明問題的特性 研究方法 說明方法的來源及過去的應用 說明方法的精神及細節(jié) 說明方法如何套用到目前的問題,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,15,In an item bank, a subset of n candidate test items Q1, Q2, , Qn will be selected for composing a test sheet. With the specified course concepts to be learned, say Cj, , each test item is relevant to one or more of them. For example, to test the basic computer knowledge of students, Cj might be “I/O devices”, “Central Processing Unit” or “Memory”. In this section, a mixed integer programming model 19 is presented to formulate the test sheet-generating problem under multiple assessment considerations. The model aims at optimizing the discrimination degree of the generated test sheets with a specified range of assessment time and some other multiple constraints. Such a model has been called the Specified Range of Assessment Time (SRAT) Problem 16.（定義問題與舉例） In the SRAT problem, the major consideration is to confine the length required by the students to answer the selected items. The variables used in the formulated models are defined as follows: （公式）,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,16,Tabu search is a metaheuristic method which guides a local search procedure to effectively explore the solution space of optimization problems. It was first introduced by Glover 7, 8 and has exhibited successful applications for solving the traveling salesman problem 2, generalized assignment problem 18, job shop scheduling problem 23, and network loading problem 1, just to name a few. （方法的來源） “Tabu” comes from Tongan, a language of Polynesia, where it indicates things that cannot be touched because they are sacred, and the word now means prohibition 9. Analogously, tabu search forbids the reverse search to revisit solutions already encountered. Tabu search has the following distinctive features which make it unique from other metaheuristics. （方法的特性）,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,17,In the followings, a tabu search-based algorithm, BMST (Bit-Map Selection with Tabu approach), is proposed to find quality approximate solutions for the SRAT problem. （方法如何套用到目前的問題） Input: n test items Q1, Q2, , Qn and m concepts C1, C2, , Cm; Step 1. Generate initial configuration Since all decision variables of the SRAT problem take binary values (either 0 or 1), a configuration in the BMST algorithm can be represented in a condensed form as x = x1x2xn, which is a vector of n binary bits where xi is equivalent to 1 if test item Qi is selected and 0 otherwise. The initial configuration is designated as 000, i.e., all the test items are not selected. The reason is due to the objective of the optimization problem, which requests maximization of the average discrimination degree for selected test items. Therefore, if the algorithm starts with a zero vector and incrementally select test items with higher discrimination degrees by replacing 0 with 1, the search for the optimal solution could be expedited.

As the test is held frequently, it is critical to efficiently and effectively compose test sheets from a large item bank containing over ten thousands of test items. To fairly certificate the computer skills of students, the composed test sheets must meet multiple assessment criteria, such as the ratio of relevant concepts to be evaluated, the average discrimination degree, difficulty degree and estimated testing time. It will take significantly long time to compose an optimal test sheet from a large item bank by generating and testing each possible candidate combination of test items. To cope with this problem, a tabu search-based approach is proposed to improve the efficiency for composing near-optimal test sheets from very large item banks to meet multiple assessment criteria. Based on the proposed approach, a computer-assisted testing system has been developed; moreover, a series of experiments have been conducted to compare the efficiency and efficacy of the novel approach with other approaches. From the experimental results, it can be seen that the novel approach is desirable in composing near-optimal test sheets from large item banks. （最後一段強調(diào)研究目的及貢獻）,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,22,結(jié)論(與討論),內(nèi)容：摘要的結(jié)論加上未來的發(fā)展或改進方向 字數(shù)：300-1000字 包含 研究成果（實驗結(jié)果及貢獻） 未來可能的發(fā)展或改進的方向,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,23,In this paper, a tabu search-based approach, BMST (Bit-Map Selection with Tabu), is proposed to cope with the test sheet-generating problems. BMST algorithm has been embedded in a computer skill certification system with large-scale test banks that are accessible to students as well as instructors through the world-wide-web. （強調(diào)研究目的） To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, two experiments have been conducted to compare the execution time and the solution quality of four solution-seeking strategies on eighteen item banks. Experimental results manifest that test sheets with near-optimal discrimination degrees can be obtained in a much shorter time by employing the novel approach.（強調(diào)研究貢獻） For further extensive applications, some collaborative plans with some local electronic companies are proceeding, in which the novel approach is applied to test and train junior engineers, such as the knowledge and skills of Nano Self-Assembly, Quantum Dot Self-Assembly, Copolymer Self-Assembly, Electrostatic Self-Assembly, etc.,英文論文寫作與投稿經(jīng)驗 - 黃國禎,24,References的內(nèi)容,依姓氏排列 以1, 2, 3 標示 研討會論文：Conferences, Congress, Workshop 1 L.M.M.
