Abstract

Open-ended questions are questions that allow someone to give a free-form answer. Analysis and evaluation of answers to open-ended questions require automation. Experts who develop standards of free-form answers use uncertain information. Uncertainty may appear in cases of synonymy, polysemy, insufficiency or redundancy of the object description. Therefore, fuzziness is the most common type of uncertainty in activities related to the evaluation of answers to open-ended questions. This paper describes the methodology for evaluation free-form answers using knowledge discovery methods. Methods of knowledge discovery consider the uncertainty and fuzziness in the answers to open-ended questions. This article also describes the architecture of the expert system of electronic testing that implements the developed methodology.
