Student Performance Analysis & Prediction
Relationship between student features and academic success, and machine-learning models to predict pass or fail.
View resource ↗Simanto Podder is a Computer Science and Engineering graduate of American International University-Bangladesh (CGPA 3.49, Dean’s List) working in machine learning, data science and data analysis. Projects range from student-performance prediction to S&P 500 stock analysis in Python, and the research applies supervised learning, feature engineering and model interpretability to educational data mining, including early-warning systems for student dropout in higher education.

In education, feature engineering can be used to enhance classification while model explanations are not addressed in terms of their meaning or reliability.In the education domain, feature engineering has been used to enhance the ability of classifiers to classify, but the meaning and reliability of the model explanations is not addressed. The difference of a methodological re-analysis of published evidence between 2017 and 2024 was explored in this study, focusing on Bangladesh. All of the quan

In higher education, early warning systems have become more commonplace for the identification of students who may need assistance at an opportune time in their academic or institutional journey. But leaving aside the performance of the model on the whole, is it able to make good classification decisions about the small population of students who do drop out? This study reviews this distinction by critical evidence synthesis and secondary quantitative reanalysis of published supervised-learning
