With the rise of AI in education, knowledge tracing (KT) has become important for modeling students’ knowledge from interaction data. However, existing methods still face three major challenges, including limited modeling of personalized exercise–concept relations, low robustness to noisy interactions, and inefficient training due to suboptimal data selection. To address these issues, we propose R 2 GCurL, a novel KT framework with two key designs. First, we recast KT as a graph classification problem and construct dynamic graphs from student responses, enabling the model to capture structural relations between exercises and concepts for more personalized KT. Second, we introduce a data-centric curriculum learning strategy based on dynamic graph entropy. Under our definition, pairwise dynamic graph entropy measures graph-transition continuity, where larger values indicate stronger structural similarity. Its sequence-level aggregation is used to derive a structure-aware difficulty signal for sample scheduling. On top of this, an RL-based scheduler further adapts batch selection based on model feedback and is especially beneficial under noisier and more unstable training regimes. Theoretical analysis shows that R 2 GCurL has lower computational complexity than existing graph-based KT models. Extensive experiments on five real-world datasets confirm its effectiveness, robustness, and generalizability, including as a plug-and-play enhancement for sequence-based KT models.

Existing geometric knowledge graph embedding methods employ various relational transformations, such as translation, rotation, and projection, to model different relation patterns, which aims to enhance the expressiveness of models. In contrast to current approaches that treat the expressiveness of the model as a binary issue, we aim to delve deeper into analyzing the level of difficulty in which geometric knowledge graph embedding models can represent relation patterns. In this paper, we provide a theoretical analysis framework that measures the expressiveness of the model in relation patterns by quantifying the size of the solution space of linear equation systems. Additionally, we propose a mechanism for imposing relational constraints on geometric knowledge graph embedding models by setting “traps” near relational optimal solutions, which enables the model to better converge to the optimal solution. Empirically, we analyze and compare several typical knowledge graph embedding models with different geometric algebras, revealing that some models have insufficient solution space due to their design, which leads to performance weaknesses. We also demonstrate that the proposed relational constraint operations can improve the performance of certain relation patterns. The experimental results on public benchmarks and relation pattern specified dataset are consistent with our theoretical analysis.
