Conventional classroom is still the main learning method used all over the
world. However there are several problems attached to this method as there are a
vast number of students in every classroom and it becomes difficult for teacher to
concentrate on performance of each student. Many methods have been applied to
classify students that are based on the OF-THEN rules and pattern
recognition. Moreover, there are no researches that measure basic values by
considering intelligence and non-intelligence performances.
In our Student Performance Prediction tool, we intend to apply a Fuzzy
Probabilistic Neural Network, also known as Neuro Fuzzy logic on the database of
students marks. In the field of artificial intelligence, Neuro-fuzzy refers to
combinations of artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic. Probabilistic Neural
Networks(PNN) possess the simplicity, speed and transparency of traditional
statistical classification models along with much of the computational power and
flexibility of back-propagated neural networks . PNN has proven to be more time
efficient than conventional back-propagation based networks and has been
recognized as an alternative in real-time classification problems.
The only The drawback of the PNN in prediction problems is that it can be
used only if the desired output is expressed as one of several pre-defined classes.
