Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The study evaluated the effectiveness of Bingo English, one of the representative automated essay scoring (AES) systems in China. 84 essays in an English test held in a Chinese university were collected as the research materials. All the essays were scored by both two trained and experienced human raters and Bingo English, and the linguistic features of them were also quantified in terms of complexity, accuracy, fluency (CAF), content quality, and organization. After examining the agreement between human scores and automated scores and the correlation of human and automated scores with the indicators of the essays’ linguistic features, it was found that Bingo English scores could only reflect the essays’ quality in a general way, and the use of it should be treated with caution.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
