Abnormal Behavior in Online Exam: Distance Learning Assessments Dataset

This paper presents a newly collected and highly relevant dataset on students' abnormal behavior in online exams. This dataset focuses on assisting research in building machine-learning models that allow for maintaining academic integrity during the era of online exams. Properly, more than 8,500 annotated images of normal and abnormal behaviors of students during remote examination are held in the dataset hosted at the Harvard Dataverse repository. The dataset has two versions: the original and the augmented. We utilize semantic segmentation and deep learning techniques in the applied data augmentation; this dataset provides a crucial foundation for developing and benchmarking intelligent proctoring systems. We evaluate the dataset using YOLO5 and our improved SPL-YOLO5 model, and the resulting mean average precision (mAP) is close to 1.0.
