Neuro-symbolic framework predicts academic risk with interpretable AI

Researchers have developed EduRiskX, a novel neuro-symbolic framework designed to predict academic risk in online education. This system combines a Transformer-based neural network for analyzing student activity sequences with F-Logic symbolic reasoning, grounded in established educational theories. Experiments on the Open University Learning Analytics Dataset (OULAD) demonstrated EduRiskX's superior performance in accuracy and F1-score compared to state-of-the-art models, while also providing interpretable, rule-based explanations for its predictions. AI

IMPACT This framework offers a more interpretable and accurate approach to identifying at-risk students in online learning environments.
