DysLexLens: A Low-Resource LLM Framework for Analysing Dyslexic Learners Insights from Online Forums

Researchers proposed DysLexLens, a low-resource LLM framework to analyze dyslexic learners' experiences with AI tools using Reddit forum data. The framework filters noisy posts, integrates knowledge-graph reasoning, and includes evaluation metrics to generate verifiable insights. Results demonstrate its potential for generalizability to other low-resource forum contexts.

arXiv:2606.27619v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dyslexic learners increasingly use artificial intelligence AI tools to support reading, writing, organisation, and study-related tasks. However, their lived experiences with these tools remain largely underexamined. This paper proposes DysLexLens, a low-resource LLM framework, designed to analyse dyslexic learners experience with AI through online forum discussions. DysLexLens is designed as an end-to-end, evidence-traceable architecture which transforms noisy social media posts into a dictionary-driven corpora, provides knowledge-graph KG -based question reasoning, generates verifiable query responses, and enables response evaluation through quantitative and human-grounded assessment. DysLexLens has four key features. First, it employs a dictionary-driven filtering method to construct a more focused Reddit corpus on dyslexia and AI, filtering out noisy and weakly related posts to improve the relevance of data collected from low-resource forum contexts. Second, it integrates LLM-assisted semantic analysis with KG-based query reasoning to uncover meaningful patterns. Third, it has quantitative evaluation metrics RAGAS and Query Robustness to measure LLM-generated response performance. Fourth, it provides structured qualitative validation guidelines for assessing response quality, with a specific focus on hallucination and evidence alignment. We demonstrate the effectiveness of DysLexLens using dyslexia-related Reddit forum data and 30 questions. The results show its potential generalisability to other low-resource forum data contexts. DysLexLens, sample data, questions and evaluation results are available at Github to support reproducibility.
