Abstract
It is very important to identify the attribute mastery patterns of the examinee in cognitive diagnosis assessment. There are many methods to classify the attribute mastery patterns and many studies have been done to diagnose what the individuals have mastered and or Montel Carl Computer Simulation is used to study the classification of the attribute mastery patterns by Deep Learning. Four results were found. Firstly, Deep Learning can be used to classify the attribute mastery patterns efficiently. Secondly, the complication of the structures will decrease the accuracy of the classification. The order of the influence is linear, convergent, unstructured and divergent. It means that the divergent is the most complicated, and the accuracy of this structure is the lowest among the four structures. Thirdly, with the increasing rates of the slipping and guessing, the accuracy of the classification decreased in verse, which is the same as the existing research results. At last, the results are influenced by the sample size of the training, and the proper sample size is in need of deeper discussion.Keywords
