cdfkt reduces causal attribution ambiguity in knowledge tracing via cognitive decoupling and adaptive fusion. It decouples student cognitive state into situational adaptability (modeled by an exponential-decay kernel for short-term fluctuations) and long-range knowledge accumulation (modeled by a Mamba state-space model), then fuses them through an adaptive gate for response prediction.
