Although current classroom knowledge tracking methods achieve great prediction performance, there exist still two issues: (1) They exhibit sharp changes in knowledge state due to varying responses of students, resulting in semantic shifts in modelling knowledge state of students. (2) Transformer-based methods lack temporal information, limiting their ability to capture the gradual and cumulative nature of learning over time. To this end, a deep semantics-robust network is proposed via improving classroom knowledge tracking of students (DSN-KT) from three aspects, i.e., the data, the model, the loss, which significantly boosts the model stability and accuracy. Specifically, DSN-KT conducts the knowledge augmentation to generate data of different views for stable and robust estimation of knowledge states. And then, DSN-KT introduces the deep semantic learning within the transformer architecture with a time-cumulative attention, to capture the temporal dynamic information of students in learning knowledge. Meanwhile, DSN-KT devises the knowledge state prediction to provide the optimization function that optimizes prediction accuracy using semantic contrastive loss and cross-entropy loss. Three components work seamlessly to enable deep exploration and capture of students\u2019 knowledge state patterns. Finally, extensive experiments on four datasets show superiority and effectiveness of DSN-KT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Keywords:&nbsp;Classroom knowledge tracking; knowledge augmentation; deep semantics-robust learning<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:2rem\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-tkuwpbs5-bs5-div ref_ol\" data-aos=\"normal\">\n<ol>\n<li>[1] Y.
