Abstract
Machine learning has advanced significantly in recent years and is being used in higher education to perform various types of data analysis. While the literature demonstrates the application of machine learning algorithms to predict performance in university education, no such applications are found in EBR, let alone in private institutions of a denominational nature, which presents an opportunity to study prediction in these institutions. To address this gap, this research aims to propose a predictive approach as a decision-support tool for regular basic education, using machine learning techniques. Among the techniques utilized, three machine learning models (Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest), along with deep learning models (AlexNet, Gated Recurrent Unit, and Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit), were analyzed, as well as ensemble models. Nonetheless, the Ensemble model, which combines deep learning and machine learning techniques, is preferred due to its superior accuracy, precision, and sensitivity performance metrics.
