It is pivotal for the educational institutes to track the performance record because it can help to enhance the standard of their quality education. Thus, the role of the academic result prediction system comes into existence which uses semester grade point average (SGPA) as a metric. The proposed work aims to create a model that can forecast the SGPA of students based on certain traits. It predicts the result in the form of SGPA of computer science students considering their past academic performance, study, and personal habits during their academic semester using different machine learning models, and to compare them based on different accuracy parameters. Some models that are widely used and are found effective in this field are regression algorithms, classification algorithms, and deep learning techniques. The results conclude that deep learning techniques are the most effective in the proposed work because of their high accuracy and performance, depending upon the attributes used in the prediction.","PeriodicalId":55938,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Software Innovation","volume":"146 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138998214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By both compressing the file after capturing it and compressing the file in real-time; it was discovered that GZIP and XZ both saved considerable file size being from 2-5 GB, 5 minutes in transmission time, and considerable CPU time.

In the extractive stage, a text encoder divides the long text into elementary discourse units (EDUs). Then a parse tree based on rhetorical structure theory is constructed for the whole discourse while annotating nuclearity information. The nuclearity terminal nodes are selected based on the summary length requirement, and the key EDU sequence is output. The authors use a pointer generator network and a coverage mechanism in the generation stage. The nuclearity information of EDUs is to update the word attention distribution in the pointer generator, which not only accurately reproduces the critical details of the text but also avoids self-repetition. Experiments on the standard text summarization dataset (CNN/DailyMail) show that the ROUGE score of the proposed two-stage model is better than that of the current best baseline model, and the summary achieves corresponding improvements in accuracy and coherence.","PeriodicalId":55938,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Software Innovation","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135193707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The hybrid set of features discriminate the classes better; further, an ant colony optimizer is used to reduce the dimension of the extracted feature vectors. Finally, deep neural network is used to classify the types of vehicles in the images.
