STUDENT’S PERFORMANCE PREDICTION USING EDUCATIONAL DATA MINING

Every educational institution generates a large amount of data related to the registered students. If that data is not analyzed and used for useful purposes, then all efforts will be wasted as there is no future use of the data occurring. Academic institutions such as universities, colleges an...
