Abstract: Knowledge tracking (KT) is a methodology that leverages students' past responses to assess their current mastery of knowledge and predict their future proficiency in related concepts and exercises. However, existing KT approaches face several challenges, including inadequate representation of knowledge concepts and exercises, as well as insufficient consideration of the multiple relationships between them. To address these issues, this paper proposes a novel Dual-Graph Convolutional Knowledge Tracking method based on Hidden Knowledge Extraction (DGHKE). Specifically, multivariate relational information is modeled using concept-exercise association graphs and exercise-exercise association graphs, constructed via hypergraph and directed graph representations to facilitate effective representation learning. Furthermore, the HKIE-LSTM attention mechanism is employed to capture deep knowledge information potentially overlooked by graph convolution, integrating it with original features to enhance the representation of both concepts and exercises and mitigate the sparsity problem commonly observed in KT data. Online supervised models then exploit the fused information to enable mutual learning of representations, while additional supervised signals provide feedback to further improve prediction accuracy. Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets, compared against seven state-of-the-art baselines, demonstrate that DGHKE consistently achieves superior performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
