Abstract

An Automated examination system for evaluation and descriptive test is an online based examination system in which exams are conducted online. The primary purpose of this Smart Examination system is to build an automated examination system. There is no need of paper and pen. Here students can write exam using internet or intranet. We will mainly use Machine Learning, Natural language processing (NLP) that generates a descriptive test automatically. The main objectives are analyzing sentence and find the semantic meaning of student answer and compare with actual answer defined by instructor and then assigns final scores. Now compare the automated evaluated score with the manual evaluated score with a specific threshold if threshold is deviated then with use of machine learning algorithm can improve the automated evaluation process. It saves lot of valuable time of teachers, reduce work, and complete the evaluation on time.

Keywords

NLP, Exams, Evaluation, NLKT, Similarity, Online Test.
