Abstract
Testing agencies require large numbers of high-quality items that are produced in a cost-effective and timely manner. Increasingly, these agencies also require items in different languages. In this paper we present a methodology for multilingual automatic item generation (AIG). AIG is the process of using item models to generate test items with the aid of computer technology. We describe a three-step AIG approach where, first, test development specialists identify the content that will be used for item generation. Next, the specialists create item models to specify the content in the assessment task that must be manipulated to produce new items. Finally, elements in the item model are manipulated with computer algorithms to produce new items. Language is added in the item model step to permit multilingual AIG. We illustrate our method by generating 360 English and 360 French medical education items. The importance of item banking in multilingual test development is also discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
