This work re-frames anomalous test response detection in standardized testing as binary image classification by transforming test response logs into fixed-size matrix representations and treating them as grayscale images. Deep learning architectures, including ResNet and Vision Transformer, are evaluated. Experiments demonstrate that the approach is feasible and achieves high recall.

We present a novel method for document-level text simplification and automatic illustration generation aimed at enhancing information accessibility for individuals with cognitive impairments. While prior research has primarily focused on sentence- or paragraph-level simplification and text-to-image generation for narrative contexts this work addresses the unique challenges of simplifying long-form documents and generating semantically aligned visuals. The pipeline consists of three stages (1) discourse-aware segmentation using large language models (2) visually grounded description generation via abstraction and (3) controlled image synthesis using state-of-the-art diffusion models including DALLE 3 and FLUX1-dev. We further incorporate stylistic constraints to ensure visual coherence and we conduct a human evaluation measuring comprehension semantic alignment and visual clarity. Experimental results demonstrate that our method effectively combines simplified text and visual content with generated illustrations enhancing textual accessibility.
