✨ What Is ExplainGrade?

ExplainGrade AI is an Automated Short Answer Grading (ASAG) system powered by:

  • 🧠 BERT Semantic Understanding: Deep learning embeddings for meaning-based grading
  • 📊 6-Dimensional Analytics: Measure learning across multiple dimensions
  • ⚡ Real-Time Streaming: Grade and analyze submissions instantly
  • 📈 Batch Processing: Analyze thousands of submissions in minutes
  • 🐳 Cloud-Ready: Docker, Kubernetes, and API-first architecture
  • 💬 Explainable Results: Natural language feedback for every grade

Core Features:

  • ✅ Semantic similarity-based grading (not keyword matching)
  • ✅ Explainable grades with strengths and improvement areas
  • ✅ Real-time analytics dashboard
  • ✅ Multi-class aggregation and reporting
  • ✅ Temporal learning trajectory tracking
  • ✅ Scales from 1 to 10,000+ students

🚀 Quick Start

Option 1: Local Grading (5 minutes)

# Grade submissions locally
python local_grader.py --docx file.docx --xlsx summary.xlsx --max-score 10

# View results
python -c "import json; print(json.dumps(open('grades.json').read(), indent=2))"

Option 2: Web Dashboard (10 minutes)

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Start development server
npm run dev

# Open browser to http://localhost:3000
# Upload files and see analytics dashboard

Option 3: Docker Full Stack (30 minutes)

# Start all services locally
docker-compose up --build

# Services available:
# Frontend: http://localhost:3000
# API: http://localhost:8000
# API Docs: http://localhost:8000/docs
# PostgreSQL: localhost:5432
# Kafka: localhost:9092
# Redis: localhost:6379

Option 4: Real-Time Streaming (Production)

# Terminal 1: Start Kafka consumer
python -m src.kafka_consumer

# Terminal 2: Submit answers via producer
python -m src.kafka_producer

# Answers graded in real-time to Kafka topic

Option 5: Scale with Spark (Large batches)

# Process 1000+ submissions distributed
python -m src.spark_batch

# Generates analytics_batch.json with results

📊 6-Dimensional Analytics

ExplainGrade measures learning across six independent dimensions:

  1. Semantic Similarity - Deep understanding via BERT embeddings
  2. Concept Mastery - Identifies concepts the student knows
  3. Anomaly Detection - Flags unusual performance patterns
  4. Peer Comparison - Percentile ranking vs cohort
  5. Learning Momentum - Improvement trajectory over time
  6. Coverage Metrics - Which topics are covered

Each dimension provides actionable insights beyond a single score.
