Simulating student writing behavior offers a promising pathway to scalable feedback evaluation and teacher training. However, existing LLM-based approaches tend to model overly capable learners who readily understand and over-apply feedback, resulting in pedagogically implausible behavior. In this work, we introduce pedagogical realism as a guiding principle for student writing simulation, emphasizing bounded cognition, selective feedback comprehension, and developmentally plausible learning processes. To operationalize this idea, we propose CPT-Agent, a cognitively grounded framework that decouples cognitive ability from writing proficiency and models their interaction during writing and revision. CPT-Agent combines probabilistic modeling of cognitive development, proficiency-controlled text generation, and structured memory for skill accumulation. Experiments show that it (1) produces clearly distinguishable proficiency levels, (2) generates cognitively plausible revisions consistent with instructional theories, and (3) achieves strong agreement with expert judgments in evaluating feedback quality. These results highlight the importance of modeling cognitive constraints in LLM-based student simulation and demonstrate the potential of pedagogically realistic agents for automated feedback assessment and teacher development.

Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities in open information extraction. However, their substantial resource requirements often restrict their deployment in resource-constrained industrial settings, particularly on edge devices. The high computational demands also lead to increased latency, making them difficult to apply in real-time applications. In this paper, we introduce MARIO-0.5B, an ultra-lightweight model trained on instruction-based samples in Chinese, English, Korean, and Russian. We also present a novel multi-agent framework, SMOIE, which integrates schema mining, information extraction, reasoning, and decision-making to effectively support MARIO-0.5B.The experimental results show that our framework outperforms large-scale models with up to 70B parameters, reducing computational resources by 140x and delivering 11x faster response times. Moreover, it operates efficiently in CPU-only environments, which makes it well-suited for widespread industrial deployment.

This paper presents a novel sentence ordering method by plugging a coherence verifier (CoVer) into pair-wise ranking-based and sequence generation-based methods. It does not change the model parameters of the baseline, and only verifies the coherence of candidate (partial) orders produced by the baseline and reranks them in beam search. We also propose a coherence model as CoVer with a novel graph formulation and a novel data construction strategy for contrastive pre-training independently of the sentence ordering task. Experimental results on four benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our method with topological sorting-based and pointer network-based methods as the baselines. Detailed analyses illustrate how CoVer improves the baselines and confirm the importance of its graph formulation and training strategy.
