assertion_sentence_has_answer_to_a_math_problem

Assertion: sentence has answer to a math problem

This classifier was trained for EduBehaviors: Assertion-based schemas for auditable dialogue coding and is usable through the Python package EduBehaviors-kit. This classifier was trained on an LLM-annotated subset of teacher utterances from the TalkMoves Dataset. See the Datasets section below for more information.

Training Details

Datasets

This model's columns are assertion_sentence_has_answer_to_a_math_problem and split_sentence_has_answer_to_a_math_problem.

Base rate (share of rows labeled as True): 4.7% overall — 4.8% train, 5.1% dev, 4.4% test.

Labels and annotation

Labels were generated with LLM annotators. Krippendorff's alpha for this assertion is 0.409.

Results

Limitations

• Labels come from LLM annotators, not human coders. Agreement between annotators with Krippendorff's Alpha is 0.409.
• Trained on teacher utterances only. Behaviour on student speech is untested.

How to Use

Message Structure

The model was trained on text built as:

{utterance}

The utterance is passed through as-is.

Running instructions

pip install setfit

from setfit import SetFitModel

model = SetFitModel.from_pretrained("StanfordSCALE/assertion_sentence_has_answer_to_a_math_problem")

text = 'Okay so thats the largest  Yeah'
model.predict([text])        # -> array([1]) when the assertion holds
model.predict_proba([text])  # -> [[P(no), P(yes)]]
