The dataset used in this project was collected from the Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Educational Sciences students in 2019. The purpose is to predict students' end-of-term performances using ML techniques. Attribute information in the dataset are as follows: Student ID; Student Age (1: 18-21, 2: 22-25, 3: above 26); Sex (1: female, 2: male); Graduated high-school type: (1: private, 2: state, 3: other); Scholarship type: (1: None, 2: 25%, 3: 50%, 4: 75%, 5: Full); Additional work: (1: Yes, 2: No); Regular artistic or sports activity: (1: Yes, 2: No); Do you have a partner: (1: Yes, 2: No); Total salary if available (1: USD 135-200, 2: USD 201-270, 3: USD 271-340, 4: USD 341-410, 5: above 410); Transportation to the university: (1: Bus, 2: Private car/taxi, 3: bicycle, 4: Other); Accommodation type in Cyprus: (1: rental, 2: dormitory, 3: with family, 4: Other); Mother's education: (1: primary school, 2: secondary school, 3: high school, 4: university, 5: MSc., 6: Ph.D.); Father's education: (1: primary school, 2: secondary school, 3: high school, 4: university, 5: MSc., 6: Ph.D.); Number of sisters/brothers (if available): (1: 1, 2:, 2, 3: 3, 4: 4, 5: 5 or above); Parental status: (1: married, 2: divorced, 3: died - one of them or both); Mother's occupation: (1: retired, 2: housewife, 3: government officer, 4: private sector employee, 5: self-employment, 6: other); Father's occupation: (1: retired, 2: government officer, 3: private sector employee, 4: self-employment, 5: other); Weekly study hours: (1: None, 2: <5 hours, 3: 6-10 hours, 4: 11-20 hours, 5: more than 20 hours); Reading frequency (non-scientific books/journals): (1: None, 2: Sometimes, 3: Often); Reading frequency (scientific books/journals): (1: None, 2: Sometimes, 3: Often); Attendance to the seminars/conferences related to the department: (1: Yes, 2: No); Impact of your projects/activities on your success: (1: positive, 2: negative, 3: neutral); Attendance to classes (1: always, 2: sometimes, 3: never); Preparation to midterm exams 1: (1: alone, 2: with friends, 3: not applicable); Preparation to midterm exams 2: (1: closest date to the exam, 2: regularly during the semester, 3: never); Taking notes in classes: (1: never, 2: sometimes, 3: always); Listening in classes: (1: never, 2: sometimes, 3: always); Discussion improves my interest and success in the course: (1: never, 2: sometimes, 3: always); Flip-classroom: (1: not useful, 2: useful, 3: not applicable); Cumulative grade point average in the last semester (/4.00): (1: <2.00, 2: 2.00-2.49, 3: 2.50-2.99, 4: 3.00-3.49, 5: above 3.49); Expected Cumulative grade point average in the graduation (/4.00): (1: <2.00, 2: 2.00-2.49, 3: 2.50-2.99, 4: 3.00-3.49, 5: above 3.49); Course ID; and OUTPUT: Grade (0: Fail, 1: DD, 2: DC, 3: CC, 4: CB, 5: BB, 6: BA, 7: AA). The models used in this project are K-Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, Adaboost, LGBM classifier, Gradient Boosting, and XGB classifier. Three feature scaling used in machine learning are raw, minmax scaler, and standard scaler. Finally, you will develop a GUI using PyQt5 to plot cross validation score, predicted values versus true values, confusion matrix, learning curve, decision boundaries, performance of the model, scalability of the model, training loss, and training accuracy.
