Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT: The power, speed and sophistication of software for computer-aided design (CAD) drafting has revolutionized the design process and the productivity of experienced users. Assessment and mark-up of student drawings in a university class is still time-consuming and requires teaching assistants to be well-versed and proficient. This bottleneck can slow the learning of students if they are not provided with timely and proficient feedback. Software can be developed that uses the quantitative information stored in electronic files for direct comparison with a solution. This however requires an appropriate learning/teaching approach that is complementary with the assessment approach. A learning approach with complementary assessment is outlined along with the developed software for the assessment of large numbers of student submissions in a university level engineering course on drafting.

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.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
