Chenhao Niu, Yong-Siang Shih, Manqian Liao, Ruidong Liu, Angel Ortmann Lee
Abstract
This project leverages AI-based analysis of keystroke and mouse data to detect copy-typing and identify cheating rings in the Duolingo English Test. By modeling behavioral biometrics, the approach provides actionable signals to proctors, enhancing digital test security for large-scale online assessment.- Anthology ID:
