The Effect of Population Distribution and Method of Theta Estimation on Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) Using the Rating Scale Model
TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation study was conducted to investigate the effect of population distribution on maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and expected a posteriori estimation (EAP) in computerized adaptive testing (CAT) based on Andrich's rating scale model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visualization and scaling of TREC topic document sets
TL;DR: This paper explores the applicability of the TREC Information Retrieval Test Collection for this purpose using commonly available data and statistical methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shape recovery: a visual method for evaluation of information retrieval experiments
TL;DR: The method described permits visual analysis of information retrieval experiment results in classic control and treatment group protocols that may be conducted within the rich terrain of human visual acuity, supported by two well‐known statistical measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new machine classification method applied to human peripheral blood leukocytes
TL;DR: By reducing scaled human judgments and machine extracted features to a common metric space and fitting them by regression, the judgments of human experts rendered on a sample of images may be imposed on an image population to provide automatic classification.
Journal ArticleDOI
IRTINFO: A SAS Macro Program to Compute Item and Test Information:
TL;DR: IRTINFO is a collection of SAS macros that compute item and test information for the graded response model (Samejima, 1969), the partial credit model (Masters, 1982), the generalized partialCredit model (Muraki, 1992), the rating scale model (Andrich, 1978), the successive intervals model (Rost, 1988), and the three-parameter logistic model (~irnbaurn, 1968).
