Student performance prediction is extremely important in today’s educational system. Predicting student achievement in advance can assist students and teachers in keeping track of the student’s progress. Today, several institutes have implemented a manual ongoing evaluation method. Students benefit from such methods since they help them improve their performance. In this study, we can use educational data mining (EDM), which we recommend as an ensemble classifier to anticipate the understudy accomplishment forecast model based on data mining techniques as classification techniques. This model uses distinct datasets which represent the student’s intercommunication with the instructive model. The exhibition of an understudy’s prescient model is evaluated by a kind of classifiers, for instance, logistic regression, naïve Bayes tree, artificial neural network, support vector system, decision tree, random forest, and k -nearest neighbor. Additionally, we used set processes to evolve the presentation of these classifiers. We utilized Boosting, Random Forest, Bagging, and Voting Algorithms, which are the normal group of techniques used in studies. By using ensemble methods, we will have a good result that demonstrates the dependability of the proposed model. For better productivity, the various classifiers are gathered and, afterward, added to the ensemble method using the Vote procedure. The implementation results demonstrate that the bagging method accomplished a cleared enhancement with the DT model, where the DT algorithm accuracy with bagging increased from 90.4% to 91.4%. Recall results improved from 0.904 to 0.914. Precision results also increased from 0.905 to 0.915.

This article presents the results of connecting an educational data mining techniques to the academic performance of students. Three classification models (Decision Tree, Random Forest and Deep Learning) have been developed to analyze data sets and predict the performance of students. The projected submission of the three classificatory was calculated and matched. The academic history and data of the students from the Office of the Registrar were used to train the models. Our analysis aims to evaluate the results of students using various variables such as the student's grade. Data from (221) students with (9) different attributes were used. The results of this study are very important, provide a better understanding of student success assessments and stress the importance of data mining in education. The main purpose of this study is to show the student successful forecast using data mining techniques to improve academic programs. The results of this research indicate that the Decision Tree classifier overtakes two other classifiers by achieving a total prediction accuracy of 97%.

In the modern education system, many higher education institutions prefer data mining tools and techniques to analyze the academic improvement of their students. To support that many data mining techniques and tools are available. This paper uses the classification concept to analyze the student’s academic performance. This paper presents the comparison result of five classification algorithms – Decision Tree, Naïve Bayesian, K-Nearest Neighbour, Support Vector Machine and Random Forest which is applied to the data collected from three colleges of Assam, India. The data consists of socio-economic, demographic as well as academic information of three hundred students with twenty-four attributes. The data mining tool used was ORANGE. The internal assessment attribute in the continuous evaluation process makes the highest impact in the final semester results of the students in the dataset. The results showed that Random Forest out performs the other classifiers based on accuracy.

Data mining is the trending field used to get relevant knowledge from the database given. This technique consists of subfield called educational data mining is the emerging area used to extract the hidden patterns from the huge data with the help of tools techniques developed by the researchers of the educational data mining. The purpose of extracting patterns from the educational database is to improve the quality of education can be provided to the students for their better feature. The patterns are extracted by using the existing data mining techniques to enhance student performance. Educational data mining techniques such as classification, regression, clustering are available in the field. Classification is defined as the technique used to categorize the data based on the given label and constraints. In this paper, the algorithms like naves Bayes, Random Forest and J48 algorithms used to classify the data instances under the given labels using the constraints given., the classification algorithms like naves Bayes shows best performance accuracy with the given student dataset. Clustering and apriori rule have a strong relationship in student performance. In this paper, predictive data mining used to predict the student's performance to enhance the study level of the students in the organization.

Application of data mining (DM) techniques to optimize the process of collection of Active Debt (AD) of the State of Pernambuco, Brazil. We apply the following data mining techniques: Decision Tree (DT), Logistic regression (LR), Nayve bayes (NB), Support vector machine (SVM), also applied to the Random Forest technique which is considered an essemble method. We observed that the RF technique obtained better results than all the techniques of classification, reaching higher values in all metrics analyzed. We note that the creation of a data mining model to choose which debts can succeed in the collection process can bring benefits to the pernambuco government. With the application of RF technique, we obtained indexes above 85% in the evaluation of the metrics.

<p class="Abstract"><span lang="EN-GB">In this competitive scenario of the educational system, the higher education institutes use data mining tools and techniques for academic improvement of the student performance and to prevent drop out. The authors collected data from three colleges of Assam, India. The data consists of socio-economic, demographic as well as academic information of three hundred students with twenty-four attributes. Four classification methods, the J48, PART, Random Forest and Bayes Network Classifiers were used. The data mining tool used was WEKA. The high influential attributes were selected using the tool. The internal assessment attribute in the continuous evaluation process makes the highest impact in the final semester results of the students in our dataset.  The results showed that random forest outperforms the other classifiers based on accuracy and classifier errors. Apriori algorithm was also used to find the association rule mining among all the attributes and the best rules were also displayed.<em></em></span></p>


Educational organizations are unique and play the utmost significant role in the development of any country. In the Educational database, due to the enormous volume of data for predicting student's achievement becomes more complicated. To upgrade a student's performance and triumph is more efficient in a practical way using Educational Data Mining Techniques. Data Mining Techniques could deliver favor and brunt to educators and academic institutions. The student's data ((i.e.) Name,10th %,12th cut off, CGPA, No of arrears, etc.) are gathered. Then, the datasets are imported into the Anaconda Navigator. Then, analysis and classification based on attributes of the students and the schemes are performed. Then using the prediction algorithm Naïve Bayes what are all the features the particular student is eligible for are predicted as placed. The student's input that has disparate data about their past and present academics report and then apply the Naïve Bayes algorithm using Anaconda Navigator to search the student's achievement for placement. A proposed methodology based on a classification approach to finding an improved estimation method for predicting the placement for students. This project can find the association for academic achievement of each particular student and their placement achievement in campus selection.
