Bound Model of Clustering and Classification (BMCC) for Proficient Performance Prediction of Didactical Outcomes of Students
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
In this era of High-Performance High computing systems, Large-scale Data Mining methodologies in the field of education have become a convenience to discover and extract knowledge from Databased of their respective educational archives. Typically, all educational institutions around the world maintain student data repositories. Attributes of students such as the name of the student, gender of student, age group (date of birth), religion, eligibility details, academic assessment details, etc. are kept in it. With this knowledge, in this paper, didactical data mining (DDM) is used to leverage the performance prediction of student and to analyse it proactively. As it is known, Classification and Clustering are the liveliest techniques in mining the required data. Hence, Bound Model of Clustering and Classification (BMCC) have been proposed in this research for most proficient educational data mining. Classification is one of the distinguished options in Data Mining to assign an object under some pre-defined classes according to their attributes, and hence it comes under a supervised learning problem. On the other side, clustering is considered as a non-supervised learning problem that involves in grouping up of objects with respect to some similarities. Moreover, this paper uses the dataset collected from Kerala Technological University-SNG College of Engineering (KTU_SNG) for performing the BMCC. An efficient J48 decision tree algorithm is used for classification and the k-means algorithm is incorporated for clustering here and is optimised with Bootstrap Aggregation (Bagging). The implementation has been done and analysed with a data mining tool called WEKA (Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis), and the results are compared with some most used classifications such as Bayes Classifier (NB), Neural Network (Multilayer Perceptron MLP) and J48. It is provable from the results that the model, proposed in this provides high Precision Rate (PR), accuracy and robustness with less computational time, though the sample data set includes some missing values.
