In education quality assurance, the accuracy of test data is crucial. However, there is still a problem regarding to the possibility of incorrect data filled by test taker during paper-based test. On the contrary, this problem does not appear in computer-based test. In this study, a method was proposed in order to analyze the accuracy of answer sheet filling out in paper-based test using data mining technique. A single layer of data comprehension was added within the method instead of raw data. The results of the study were a web-based program for data pre-processing and decision tree models. There were 374 instances which were analyzed. The accuracy of answer sheet filling out attained 95.19% while the accuracy of classification varied from 99.47% to 100% depend on evaluation method chosen. This study could motivate the administrators for test improvement since it preferred computer-based test to paper-based.

—In this paper, we employ data mining (DM) technique to analyze various potential factors which impact the in-class teaching quality evaluation. Based on an effective dataset, we first exploit association rule method to mine the relationship between the teacher’s attributions, such as title, degree, age, seniority, and load, and the in-class teaching quality evaluation results. Then, we construct the decision tree of course’s attributions to reveal how the course’s attributions, such as property, credit, week hour, and number of students, impact the in-class teaching quality evaluation results. Our mined rules can provide effective guidance to talent development, teaching management, and input of talent in higher education system. Index Terms—data mining, decision tree, association rule, teaching quality evaluation

Intervention in mental health urges new solutions that merge solid theoretical foundations and new possibilities provided by technological development. This chapter is structured around results from a data mining technique using VOSViewer, which organized the field into five clusters of published literature: (1) most affected populations, (2) mental illness/disorders and their impact, (3) the expansion of remote interventions, (4) ICT potential to overcome limitations and (5) a positive approach to ICTs in mental health care. Solutions and recommendations are presented to overcome the issues identified, including how future interventions should consider old and new issues as the ones raised by the COVID-19 pandemic. Computer-based or web-based interventions are hereby presented as part of the revolution towards digital mental health or e-mental health. This approach has the potential to deconfine interventions, releasing them from the traditional settings and reaching new populations. It also reinforces the path already started, from the secondary to the primary and primordial prevention, towards the modification of the psychopathological trajectories.

Predicting performance is very significant in the education world nowadays. This paper will describe the process of doing a prediction of student performance by using data mining technique. 257 data sets were taken from the student of semester 6 KPTM that involved four (4) academic programs which are Diploma in Computer System and Networking, Diploma in Information Technology, Diploma in Business Management and Diploma in Accountancy. Knowledge Discovery in Database (KDD) was used as a guide to the process of finding and extracting a knowledge from the dataset. A decision tree and linear regression were used to analyze the dataset based on variables selected. The variables used are Gender, Financing, SPM, GPASem1, GPASem2, GPASem3, GPASem4, GPASem5 and CGPA as a dependent variable. The result from this indicate the significant variable that contribute most to the students’ performance. Based on the analysis, the decision tree shows that GPASem1 has a strong significant to the CGPA final semester of the student and the prediction accuracy is 82%. The linear regression shows that the GPA for each semester has a highly significant with the dependent variable with 96.2% prediction accuracy. By having this information, the management of KPTM can make a plan to ensure that the student can maintain a good result and at the same time to make a strategic plans for those without a good result.

Large volume of educational data has led to more challenging in predicting student’s performance. In Malaysia currently, study about the performance of students in Malaysia institutions is very little being addressed. The previous studies are still insufficient to identify what factors contribute to student’s achievements and lack of investigations on exploring pattern of student’s behaviour that affecting their academic performance within Malaysia context. Therefore, predicting student’s academic performance by using decision trees is proposed to improve student’s achievements more effectively. The main objective of this paper is to provide an overview on predicting student’s academic performance using by using data mining techniques. This paper also focuses on identifying the pattern of student’s behaviour and the most important attributes that impact to the student’s achievement. By using educational data mining techniques, the students, lecturers and academic institution are able to have a better understanding on the student’s achievement.

Experts from different domains have resorted to machine learning techniques to produce explainable models that support decision-making. Among existing techniques, decision trees have been useful in many application domains for classification. Decision trees can make decisions in a language that is closer to that of the experts. Many researchers have attempted to create better decision tree models by improving the components of the induction algorithm. One of the main components that have been studied and improved is the evaluation measure for candidate splits. In this article, we introduce a tutorial that explains decision tree induction. Then, we present an experimental framework to assess the performance of 21 evaluation measures that produce different C4.5 variants considering 110 databases, two performance measures, and 10× 10-fold cross-validation. Furthermore, we compare and rank the evaluation measures by using a Bayesian statistical analysis. From our experimental results, we present the first two performance rankings in the literature of C4.5 variants. Moreover, we organize the evaluation measures into two groups according to their performance. Finally, we introduce meta-models that automatically determine the group of evaluation measures to produce a C4.5 variant for a new database and some further opportunities for decision tree models.
