    Smart Exam Evaluator for Object-Oriented Programming Modules
    (2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Wickramasinghe, M.L.; Wijethunga, H.P.; Yapa, S.R.; Vishwajith, D.M.D.; Samaratunge Arachchillage, U.S.S.; Amarasena, N.
    Worldwide educators considered that, automate the evaluation of programming language-based exams is a more challenging task due to its complexity and the diversity of solutions implemented by students. This research investigates and provides insight into the applicability and development of a java based online exam evaluator as a solution to traditional onerous manual exam assessment methodology. The proposed system allows students to take online exams in Java for an implemented source code in a practical exam, automatically reporting the results to the administrator simultaneously. Accordingly, this research examines existing methods, identifies their limitations, and explores the significance of introducing a smart object-oriented program-based exam evaluator as a solution. This method minimizes all human errors and makes the system more efficient. An automated answer checker checks and marks are given as human-counterpart and generate a report with possible suggestions for improvement of the answer scripts and generate a classification report to predict the student’s final exam marks. This software application uses a Knowledge base, Abstract Syntax tree (AST), ANTLR, Image processing, and Machine Learning (ML) as key technologies. The proposed system gains a higher accuracy of 95% as performed by a separate human-counterpart. These results show a high level of accuracy and automate marking is the major emphasis to save human evaluation effort and maximize productivity.
