Abstract

In present decade, many Educational Institutions use classification techniques and Data mining concepts for evaluating student records. Student Evaluation and classification is very much important for improving the result percentage. Hence, Educational Data Mining based models for analyzing the academic performances have become an interesting research domain in current scenario. With that note, this paper develops a model called Multi-Tier Student Performance Evaluation Model (MTSPEM) using single and ensemble classifiers. The student data from higher educational institutions are obtained and evaluated in this model based on significant factors that impacts greater manner in student's performances and results. Further, data preprocessing is carried out for removing the duplicate and redundant data, thereby, enhancing the results accuracy. The multi-tier model contains two phases of classifications, namely, primary classification and secondary classification. The First-Tier classification phase uses Naive Bayes Classification, whereas the second-tier classification comprises the Ensemble classifiers such as Boosting, Stacking and Random Forest (RF). The performance analysis of the proposed work is established for calculating the classification accuracy and comparative evaluations are also performed for evidencing the efficiency of the proposed model.
