Abstract

BACKGROUND: Template-based automatic item generation (AIG) is more efficient than traditional item writing but it still heavily relies on expert effort in model development. While nontemplate-based AIG, leveraging artificial intelligence (AI), offers efficiency, it faces accuracy challenges. Medical education, a field that relies heavily on both formative and summative assessments with multiple choice questions, is in dire need of AI-based support for the efficient automatic generation of items.
