Can Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), with capabilities in perception, recognition, understanding, and reasoning, function as independent assistants in art evaluation dialogues? Current MLLM evaluation methods, which rely on subjective human scoring or costly interviews, lack comprehensive coverage of various scenarios. This paper proposes a process-oriented Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) space design to facilitate more accurate MLLM assessment and development. This approach aids teachers in efficient art evaluation while also recording interactions for MLLM capability assessment. We introduce ArtMentor, a comprehensive space that integrates a dataset and three systems to optimize MLLM evaluation. The dataset consists of 380 sessions conducted by five art teachers across nine critical dimensions. The modular system includes agents for entity recognition, review generation, and suggestion generation, enabling iterative upgrades. Machine learning and natural language processing techniques ensure the reliability of evaluations. The results confirm GPT-4o's effectiveness in assisting teachers in art evaluation dialogues.

Knowledge Tracing (KT) is a crucial task in computer-aided education and intelligent tutoring systems, predicting students’ performance on new questions from their responses to prior ones. An accurate KT model can capture a student’s mastery level of different knowledge topics, as reflected in their predicted performance on different questions. This helps improve the learning efficiency by suggesting appropriate new questions that complement students’ knowledge states. However, current KT models have significant drawbacks that they neglect the imbalanced discrimination of historical responses. A significant proportion of question responses provide limited information for discerning students’ knowledge mastery, such as those that demonstrate uniform performance across different students. Optimizing the prediction of these cases may increase overall KT accuracy, but also negatively impact the model’s ability to trace personalized knowledge states, especially causing a deceptive surge of performance. Towards this end, we propose a framework to reweight the contribution of different responses based on their discrimination in training. Additionally, we introduce an adaptive predictive score fusion technique to maintain accuracy on less discriminative responses, achieving proper balance between student knowledge mastery and question difficulty. Experimental results demonstrate that our framework enhances the performance of three mainstream KT methods on three widely used datasets.
