# PAPER – 7 (Prediction of Students Performance using Machine learning)

Abstract
The research focuses on predicting students' academic performance using
machine learning techniques like logistic regression, decision trees, and K-
nearest neighbors (KNN). By analyzing students' 10th, 12th, and semester
grades, the model provides insights into their likely outcomes. This system aims
to help students identify areas to improve their academic behavior and ensure
better performance.

Introduction
Educational institutions face challenges in predicting student success due to
massive data and a lack of frameworks for monitoring performance. This study
explores machine learning to identify critical academic factors and use them for
better predictions. It seeks to enhance the educational process for students,
teachers, and institutions by enabling efficient tracking and decision-making.

Methodology
The proposed system:
1. Collects Data: Student grades from the 10th, 12th, and previous
semesters are used.
2. Transforms Data: Relevant academic features are extracted.
3. Applies Machine Learning:
 Decision Trees: For dividing data into subsets based on key
attributes.
 KNN: To classify students based on proximity in performance
metrics.
 Logistic Regression: To determine probabilities and predict
outcomes.
4. Deploys Predictions: Alerts for underperforming students based on
thresholds like low marks, failed subjects, or low attendance.
Technology Used
 Decision Tree: Breaks down complex data into decision nodes and
leaves, simplifying predictions.
 K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN): Uses distance metrics to classify students.
 Binomial Logistic Regression: Determines probabilities of performance
levels.
 Entropy-Based Decision Making: Enhances the accuracy of predictions.

Future Scope
The model can be expanded by:
1. Incorporating More Features: Adding behavioral data and attendance
patterns for finer predictions.
2. Improving Accuracy: Testing advanced algorithms like neural networks.
3. Real-Time Monitoring: Integrating systems for ongoing performance
tracking.
4. Personalized Recommendations: Offering targeted advice for students
based on predictions.
