title: Computational Cognitive Models of Summarization Assessment Skills creator: Lemaire, Benoit creator: Mandin, Sonia creator: Dessus, Philippe creator: Denhière, Guy subject: Language subject: Psycholinguistics subject: Cognitive Psychology description: This paper presents a general computational cognitive model of the way a summary is assessed by teachers. It is based on models of two subprocesses: determining the importance of sentences and guessing the cognitive rules that the student may have used. All models are based on Latent Semantic Analysis, a computational model of the representation of the meaning of words and sentences. Models' performances are compared with data from an experiment conducted with 278 middle school students. The general model was implemented in a learning environment designed for helping students to write summaries. contributor: Bara, Bruno contributor: Barsalou, Lawrence contributor: Bucciarelli, Monica date: 2005 type: Conference Paper type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://cogprints.org/4536/1/cogsci05.pdf identifier: Lemaire, Benoit and Mandin, Sonia and Dessus, Philippe and Denhière, Guy (2005) Computational Cognitive Models of Summarization Assessment Skills.
