Predicting Student Success in Mathematics Using Machine Learning Techniques: A Comparative Study of Algorithms

Achieving low results in mathematics is a real and urgent concern, as mathematics is the foundation of science and technology, and any weakness in it reflects negatively on the progress of society in various ways. This study evaluates how different mathematics study methods affect students educational success and achievement. We employed three different machine learning models to analyze data related to mathematics study techniques and student outcomes. These methods included: support vector machine (SVM), A K-nearest neighbors (KNN), and Linear Regression (LR). The results showed that KNN provided the best accuracy rate with 97.6% and an F1-score of 96.7%. These results highlight the significant contribution of forming study groups and trying to cooperate with each other, this factor is considered important and influential in the success of students in mathematics.
