<p><span>Recently, the decision trees have been adopted among the preeminent utilized classification models. They acquire their fame from their efficiency in predictive analytics, easy to interpret and implicitly perform feature selection. This latter perspective is one of essential significance in Educational Data Mining (EDM), in which selecting the most relevant features has a major impact on classification accuracy enhancement. <br /> The main contribution is to build a new multi-objective decision tree, which can be used for feature selection and classification. The proposed Decisive Decision Tree (DDT) is introduced and constructed based on a decisive feature value as a feature weight related to the target class label. The traditional Iterative Dichotomizer 3 (ID3) algorithm and the proposed DDT are compared using three datasets in terms of some ID3 issues, including logarithmic calculation complexity and multi-values features<em></em>selection. The results indicated that the proposed DDT outperforms the ID3 in the developing time. The accuracy of the classification is improved on the basis of 10-fold cross-validation for all datasets with the highest accuracy achieved by the proposed method is 92% for the student.por dataset and holdout validation for two datasets, i.e. Iraqi and Student-Math. The experiment also shows that the proposed DDT tends to select attributes that are important rather than multi-value. </span></p>

This chapter data mines the usage patterns of the ANGEL Learning Management System (LMS) at a comprehensive college. The data includes counts of all the features ANGEL offers its users for the Fall and Spring semesters of the academic years beginning in 2007 and 2008. Data mining techniques are applied to evaluate which LMS features are used most commonly and most effectively by instructors and students. Classification produces a decision tree which predicts the courses that will use the ANGEL system based on course specific attributes. The dataset undergoes association mining to discover the usage of one feature’s effect on the usage of another set of features. Finally, clustering the data identifies messages and files as the features most commonly used. These results can be used by this institution, as well as similar institutions, for decision making concerning feature selection and overall usefulness of LMS design, selection and implementation.

Requiring only a few relevant characteristics from patients when diagnosing bacterial vaginosis is highly useful for physicians as it makes it less time consuming to collect these data. This would result in having a dataset of patients that can be more accurately diagnosed using only a subset of informative or relevant features in contrast to using the entire set of features. As such, this is a feature selection (FS) problem. In this work, decision tree and Relief algorithms were used as feature selectors. Experiments were conducted on a real dataset for bacterial vaginosis with 396 instances and 252 features/attributes. The dataset was obtained from universities located in Baltimore and Atlanta. The FS algorithms utilized feature rankings, from which the top fifteen features formed a new dataset that was used as input for both support vector machine (SVM) and logistic regression (LR) algorithms for classification. For performance evaluation, averages of 30 runs of 10-fold cross-validation were reported, along with balanced accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity as performance measures. A performance comparison of the results was made between using the total number of features against using the top fifteen. These results found similar attributes from our rankings compared to those reported in the literature. This study is part of ongoing research that is investigating a range of feature selection and classification methods.

AbstrakPerguruan Tinggi merupakan salah satu institusi yang menyimpan data yang sangat informatif jika diolah secara baik. Prediksi kelulusan mahasiswa merupakan kasus di Perguruan Tinggi yang cukup banyak diteliti. Dengan mengetahui prediksi status kelulusan mahasiswa di tengah semester, dosen dapat mengantisipasi atau memberi perhatian khusus pada siswa yang diprediksi tidak lulus. Metode yang digunakan sangat bervariatif termasuk metode Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). Namun dalam implementasinya, proses pembangkitan rule fuzzy sering dilakukan secara random atau berdasarkan pemahaman pakar sehingga tidak merepresentasikan sebaran data. Oleh karena itu, dalam penelitian ini digunakan teknik Decision Tree (DT) untuk membangkitkan rule. Dari uraian tersebut, penelitian bertujuan untuk memprediksi kelulusan mata kuliah menggunakan hybrid FIS dan DT. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data nilai Posttest, Tugas, Kuis, dan UTS dari 106 mahasiswa Politeknik Kediri pengikut mata kuliah Algoritma dan Struktur Data. Penelitian ini diawali dari membangkitkan 5 rule yang selanjutnya digunakan dalam inferensi. Tahap selanjutnya adalah implementasi FIS dengan tahapan fuzzifikasi, inferensi, dan defuzzifikasi. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah akurasi, sensitivitas, dan spesifisitas  masing-masing adalah 94.33%, 96.55%, dan 84.21%.Kata kunci: Decision Tree, Educational Data Mining, Fuzzy Inference System, Prediksi. AbstractCollege is an institution that holds very informative data if it mined properly.

Educational data mining has illustrated an increasing demand for extracting and maneuvering data from academic backdrop, to generate prolific information which is indispensible for decision making. Therefore in this paper, an attempt has been made to deploy various data mining techniques including base and meta learning classifiers across our pedagogical dataset to foretell the performance of students. Among several contemporary ensemble approaches, researchers have practiced widespread learning classifiers viz. boosting to predict the performance of students. As exploitation of ensemble methods is considered to be significant phenomenon in classification and prediction mechanisms, therefore analogous method (boosting) has been applied across our pedagogical dataset. The entire results have been evaluated with 10-fold cross validation, once pedagogical dataset has been subjected to base classifiers including j48, random tree, naive bayes and knn. In addition, techniques such as oversampling (SMOTE) and undersampling (Spread subsampling) have been employed to further draw a comparison among ensemble classifiers and base classifiers. These methods were exploited with the key objective to observe any improvement in prediction accuracy of students.
