IMPROVING STUDENTS PERFORMANCE PREDICTION USING MACHINE LEARNING AND SYNTHETIC MINORITY OVERSAMPLING TECHNIQUE

Classification under supervision is the most common job that performed by machine learning. However, most Educators were worried about the rising evidence of student academic failures in university education. So, this study presents a supervised classification strategy of machine learning algorithm...
