EduRiskX is a neuro-symbolic framework that combines a temporal Transformer-based predictor with an F-Logic symbolic reasoning module to forecast students’ academic risk early in online courses. The neural part models longitudinal activity sequences, while the F-Logic rule base, grounded in Engagement Theory and the Student Integration Model, offers interpretable, rule-based explanations. On the Open University Learning Analytics Dataset, EduRiskX achieves an accuracy of 0.900 and an F1-score of 0.894 by week 38, detecting risk on average by week 9.32 with a 94.30% detection rate, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art time‑series and deep learning baselines.

The paper introduces CodeInsight, a large-scale dataset of over 3 million code submissions from 3,286 undergraduate students in two introductory C++ courses, capturing test‑case outcomes, timestamps, and source code. It presents a benchmark that evaluates various modeling approaches—including a Recurrent State Space Model and an LLM‑based predictor—on their ability to predict iterative problem‑solving dynamics such as performance changes and error persistence. The study finds that the RSSM outperforms other models on most courses, while the LLM generates full submissions but with lower predictive accuracy, suggesting it functions more as a generative solver than a behavior predictor.

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.
