Abstract

The problem of predicting early dropout of students of Russian universities is urgent and requires the development of new innovative approaches to address it. To do so, it is possible to develop predictive systems based on the use of student data that are available in the information systems of universities. This paper investigates machine learning models for the prediction of early student dropout, trained on the basis of student characteristics and performance data. The main scientific novelty of this work lies in the use of explainable artificial intelligence (AI) methods to interpret and explain the performance of the trained machine learning models. Explainable AI methods allow us to understand which of the input features (student characteristics) have the greatest influence on the results of the machine learning models and can also help understand why models make certain decisions. The findings expand the understanding of the influence of various factors on early dropout of students.

在教育分析中分析基于可解释人工智能方法的机器学习模型
预测俄罗斯大学学生早期辍学的问题十分紧迫,需要开发新的创新方法来解决这一问题。为此,可以利用大学信息系统中提供的学生数据开发预测系统。本文研究了预测早期学生辍学的机器学习模型,该模型基于学生特征和表现数据进行训练。这项工作的主要科学新颖之处在于使用可解释的人工智能(AI)方法来解释和解释训练有素的机器学习模型的性能。可解释的人工智能方法使我们能够理解哪些输入特征(学生特征)对机器学习模型的结果影响最大,也可以帮助理解为什么模型做出某些决策。研究结果拓展了对各种因素对学生早期辍学影响的认识。
