A Novel Student Risk Identification Model using Machine Learning Approach

Abstract

This research work aim at addressing issues in detecting student, who are at risk of failing to complete their course. The conceptual design presents a solution for efficient learning in non-existence of data from previous courses, which are generally used for training state-of-art machine learning (ML) based model. The expected scenarios usually occurs in scenario when university introduces new courses for academics. For addressing this work, build a novel learning model that builds a ML from data constructed from present course. The proposed model uses data about already submitted task, which further induces the issues of imbalanced data for both training and testing the classification model. The contribution of the proposed model are: the design of training the learning model for detecting risk student utilizing information from present courses, tackling challenges of imbalanced data which is present in both training and testing data, defining the issues as a classification task, and lastly, developing a novel non-linear support vector machine (NL-SVM) classification model. Experiment outcome shows proposed model attain significant outcome when compared with state-of-art model.
