Cognitive-Uncertainty Guided Knowledge Distillation for Accurate Classification of Student Misconceptions
Accurately identifying student misconceptions is crucial for personalized education but faces three challenges: (1) data scarcity with long-tail distribution, where authentic student reasoning is difficult to synthesize; (2) fuzzy boundaries between error categories with high annotation noise; (3) deployment parado-large models overlook unconventional approaches due to pretraining bias and cannot be deployed on edge, while small models overfit to noise. Unlike traditional methods that increase diversity through large-scale data synthesis, we propose a two-stage knowledge distillation framework that mines high-value samples from existing data. The first stage performs standard distillation...
