The effective educational systems aimed at improving Cognitive Skills (CS) both in and out of institutions. Such system relies on timely prediction of CS during students’ activities in intuitions. Meanwhile, literature is saturated with the number of approaches which have used study schedules, biological and environmental factors to predict CS. How...

Cross-Company Churn Prediction (CCCP) is a domain of research where one company (target) is lacking enough data and can use data from another company (source) to predict customer churn successfully. To support CCCP, the cross-company data is usually transformed to a set of similar normal distribution of target company data prior to building a CCCP...

The high dimensional dataset results in more noise, will require more computations, has huge sparsity linked with high dimensional features and has thus introduced great challenges in data analysis. To efficiently manipulate and address the impact of the challenges faced by high dimensional dataset, researchers used several features reduction metho...

Every year, a large volume of information about students' performance is processed in schools, colleges, and higher studies institutes.
