In traditional educational settings, English essay scoring has always been a time-consuming and highly subjective task. Teachers need to read a large number of student essays, which not only involves heavy workload but also leads to difficulties in ensuring the consistency and fairness of scoring results due to potential differences in standards among different raters.
With the rapid development of Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology, using machine learning to implement Automated Essay Scoring (AES) has become a feasible path to solve this problem. The AEESA project emerged in this context; it attempts to simulate the judgment process of human raters through algorithmic models, providing an efficient, objective, and scalable alternative for educational assessment.
