A Hybrid AI Framework for Academic Advising: Integrating Ensemble-Based Grade Prediction and a Rule-Based Expert System

The paper presents a hybrid AI framework for academic advising that combines an ensemble-based grade prediction model with a rule‑based expert system. Students from the University of Birjand were clustered using Gaussian Mixture Models, and a Stacking Ensemble of Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and MLP was trained per cluster, achieving an aggregated RMSE of 2.35. The expert system then uses these predictions alongside institutional regulations to give real‑time feedback such as GPA forecasts, probation warnings, and course recommendations.

Archetypes or ability? Clustering for modelling student mathematical competence

arXiv:2607. 26063v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Personalised learning systems often assume that mathematical ability is combined of discrete abilities, acquired sequentially and dependent upon first acquiring foundational abilities, and students often report different strengths.

Predicting Male Domestic Violence Using Explainable Ensemble Learning and Exploratory Data Analysis

The paper presents a data‑driven study of male domestic violence (MDV) in Bangladesh, using exploratory data analysis to uncover patterns such as verbal abuse prevalence and the influence of financial dependency. It evaluates 10 traditional ML models, 3 deep learning models, and 2 ensemble models, ultimately proposing a stacking ensemble with ANN and CatBoost base classifiers and Logistic Regression meta‑model that achieves 95% accuracy and 99.29% AUC. Explainable AI techniques (SHAP, LIME) and statistical validation confirm the model’s superior performance and highlight key features driving predictions.
