Some questions are marked as evaluation items, and these items are held

Those predictions and the ground truth are written to the file
at roc_file, and used to evaluate the accuracy of the algorithm, likely
with a ROC curve.
Arguments:
json_filepath: The complete filepath the the mirt file. This is the
format that is generated by mirt_npz_to_json.py. This file will be
read.
roc_filepath: The complete filepath to the file we will predictions to.
This file will be written in a format parseable by
plot_roc_curves.py (in particular, <response,prediction> where
response is 0 or 1 depending on accuracy, and prediction is the
prediction output by the model.)
test_filepath: The file containing test data. This is going to be comma
separated values with arguments specified by the optional arguments
to load_and_simulate_assessment.
The index arguments refer to the index within the test data at which
various values are located
user_index: The index at which the user id lives. This user id is used
to detect when one assessment ends and the next begins.
exercise_index: The index at which the exercise id lives. This index is
used to store the slug of the exercise, which should be the same
here as it is in the json model.
time_index: The index at which the amount of time taken to solve the
problem in seconds is stored.
correct_index: The index at which whether the student answered
correctly or not is stored. When true, this value should be stored
as 'True' or 'true' (without the quotes.)
evaluation_item_index: The index of the flag used to indicate whether
this response should be used to generate the ROC curve.
If the response should be held out, this value should be 'true' or
'True'. If there is no such value, keep a random item.
