6. A method comprising:
-
receiving a correct or incorrect response for each item and each test-taker, and a total score for each test-taker to a multi-item test taken by a plurality of test-takers; and estimating a probability of a correct response to a given item by a particular person from a Bayesian regression on a response of the particular person to the given item using a correlation between the response to each item and the total test score over the plurality of test takers. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13)
