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.
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
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
Admin Modules
● Administrator has the following Modules:
● Login Module

● Search Module [individual-wise, class-wise, daily, monthly, till date,
semester wise]
● Student Behavior Mining Module
● Specify Training Dataset
● Derive Classification Rules [Rules]
● Solution Module [Outputting the Student Behaviors]
● Manage Feedbacks [View and Reply]
● Change password Module
Student Modules

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.
