Existing System
 Existing system is a system which maintains the student
information such as student details, marks details, attendance
details etc. This system allows the users to upload the data and can
view the uploaded data. But it does not provide the useful
information which helps the education institute to produce the
efficient results. So the system is less reliable, less efficient, lack of
knowledge.
 Limitations of Existing System
 It is clear from the details of existing system that the whole system
is complex and required a lot of manual work.
 Less Efficient
 Lack of Knowledge
 Time consuming
 Less Reliable
 Lack of customized services
 Expensive
Statement of the Problem
 Identification of different factors which affects a student’s learning
behavior and performance during academic career.
 Construction of a prediction model using classification data
mining technique on the bases of identified predictive variables.
Scope & Objectives
 Proposed project is a student management system which is meant
for educational institute.
 Proposed project makes use of data mining technique for the
prediction of future.
 To improve the performance of the student
 To provide valid information from existing students to manage
relationships with upcoming students
 Identification of different factors which affects a student’s learning
behavior and performance during academic career.
 Construction of a prediction model using classification data
mining technique on the bases of identified predictive variables.
 Validation of the developed model for higher education students
studying in Indian universities/institutions
Proposed System
 Proposed system is a web based application which makes use of
data mining technique for the extraction of useful information.
 Proposed system is a student management system which maintains
all student admission details, course details, subject details,
student marks details, attendance details etc. The proposed system
allows the administrator of the application to take the student
admission, while taking admission admin also collects the student
behavior details. The system uses Data mining approach which
provides valid information from existing students to manage
relationships with upcoming students and to identify the most
effective factor to determine a student’s test score and then
adjusting these factors to improve the students test score
performance.
Input and Output
 Input – Students History.
 Output – Student Performance based on Semester wise.
System Requirements
 Hardware Requirements:
Hardware required to develop the software is as listed below
 Processor : Pentium IV onwards
 RAM : 2GB +
 Hard disk space : 40GB +
 Standard PC configuration to carryout challenging computing
System Requirements
 Software Requirements:
Software required in development is as listed below
 Operating System: Windows XP version, 7 & Higher
 Framework : DOTNET
 Design Tool : Visual Studio 2010.
 Web Framework : ASP.NET 4.0 (front end)
 Back End : SQL Server
 Language : C#.NET
Classification rule
 Classification Rule is a mathematical technique which

classifies the data in a set into one of the predefined classes.

 In Classification Rule, we are using the Naive Bayes

algorithm.
Naive Bayes algorithm working steps
 Step 1: Scan the dataset (storage servers).
 Step 2: Calculate the probability of each attribute value. [n, n_c, m, p]
 Step 3: Apply the formulae:
P(attribute value (ai) / subject value (vj)) = (n_c + mp) / (n + m)
Where:
n = the number of training examples for which v = vj
n_c = number of examples for which v = vj and a = ai
p = a priori estimate for P(ai |vj)
m = the equivalent sample size
 Step 4: Multiply the probabilities by p.
 Step 5: Compare the values and classify the attribute values to one of
the predefined set of class.
Actors
 Basically project consists of 3 actors, namely:
 Administrator
 Student
 Guest

Conclusion
 Using this research, the University will have the ability to predict the students’ loyalty
(numbers of enrolled students) so they can manage and prepare necessary resources for
the new enrolled students. This helps the teacher to improve the performance of
students’ performance and those students needed special attention for reducing falling
ratio for taking action at right time. Bayesian classification method is used on student
database to predict the students division on the basis of previous year database. Data
mining is a powerful analytical tool that enables educational institutions to better allocate
resources and staff, and proactively manage student outcomes. The management system
can improve their policy, enhance their strategies and thereby improve the quality of that
management system. Student performance in university courses is of great concern to
the higher education managements where several factors may affect the performance.
Data mining extracts hidden information with the help different mining technique.
Prediction, results and recommendation are provided by this information, which help
the user to take further decision. It also guides the concern person for whom
information has been extracted.
Future Enhancements
 In the project we can add up the parent module as a future
enhancement to the application where student’s parents can
view the marks and attendance details of the students.
 We can add up SMS alert module as a future enhancement to
the application where students or their parents gets an SMS
alerts when the marks or attendance details gets udpdated.
 In the project we have taken 25 attributes of the student, in
future we can add up more number of student attributes
which affects the student academic performance.
