Predicting students' academic performance and modeling using data mining techniques

In educational institutions and universities, the issue of study interruptions can be addressed by using e-learning.  As a result, this field has recently attracted a lot of attention.  In this study, we applied four machine-learning methods to predict students' academic progress: logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, and Naive Bayes.  The Open University Learning Analytics Dataset (OULAD), which contains a subset of the OU student data, was the source of the student data for all of these techniques.  There is information regarding the students' VLE inter

Research of data mining methods for classification of imbalanced data sets

With the rapid development of information technology, which is widely used in all spheres of human life and activity, extremely large amounts of data have been accumulated today. By applying machine learning methods to this data, new practically useful knowledge can be obtained. The main goal of this paper is to study different machine learning methods for solving the classification problem and compare their efficiency and accuracy.
