Description
Provides a collection of psychometric methods to process item metadata
and use target assessment and measurement blueprint constraints to assemble a test form. Currently two automatic
test assembly (ata) approaches are enabled. For example, the weighted (positive) deviations method, wdm(), proposed
by Swanson and Stocking (1993) was implemented in its full specification allowing
for both item selection as well as test form refinement. The linear constraint programming approach, atalp(), uses the
linear equation solver by Berkelaar et. al (2014)
to enable a variety of approaches to select items.
