Predicting Student Performance Using Mental Health and Linguistic Attributes with Deep Learning
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Early prediction of students' academic performance is a critical research topic in educational data mining.ML models have been developed to predict academic performance, but it has become difficult to extract high-quality handcrafted attributes due to the large dataset.To solve this issue, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) was presented to automatically extract attributes from students' multi-source data.However, it didn't deal with the student's mental health and their mood changes (i.e., physiological attributes), which were also essential to increase the prediction performance.Thus, this article proposes a Student Accomplishment prediction using the Distinctive Deep Learning (SADDL) model.First, the student's academic and demographic attributes are collected along with the posts shared by them about academic performance on online social networks.A Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is applied to extract the physiological attributes from the online posts data.Then, all the attributes of students' data are given to the SADDL network, which comprises three modules: (i) a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) module to learn the temporal dependency; (ii) a multidimensional Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) module to learn the correlation attributes and (iii) a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) module to predict the students' academic performance.Finally, the experimental results show that the SADDL can predict students' academic performance with an accuracy of 91.71% while using 80% training and 20% test dataset, which is 9.91% improved than the existing ML models.Similarly, the SADDL has 89.3% while using 70% training and 30% test dataset, which is 10.36% higher than the existing ML models.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
