Abstract This paper proposes to apply machine learning techniques to predict students’ performance on two
real-world educational data-sets. The first data-set is used to predict the response of students with
autism while they learn a specific task, whereas the second one is used to predict students’ failure at a
secondary school. The two data-sets suffer from two major problems that can negatively impact the
ability of classification models to predict the correct label; class imbalance and class noise. A series
of experiments have been carried out to improve the quality of training data, and hence improve… More >
