An Analysis of students’ performance using classification  algorithms

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

 In recent years, the analysis and evaluation of students‟ performance and retaining the standard of education is a very important problem in all the educational institutions. The most important goal of the paper is to analyze and evaluate the school students‟ performance by applying data mining classification algorithms in  weka tool. The data mining tool has been generally accepted as a decision making tool to facilitate better  resource utilization in terms of students‟ performance. The various classification algorithms could be  specifically mentioned as J48, Random Forest, Multilayer Perceptron, IB1 and Decision Table are used. The  results of such classification model deals with accuracy level, confusion matrices and also the execution time.  Therefore conclusion could be reached that the Random Forest performance is better than that of different  algorithms.
