Background of the Study
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a transformative technology in various fields, including education. AI techniques, such as machine learning, have been applied to predict student performance, enabling educational institutions to identify students who may require additional support. However, classical AI algorithms can be limited by their processing power and the complexity of the data they handle. Quantum-inspired AI, which leverages principles of quantum mechanics to enhance traditional machine learning models, offers the potential to overcome these limitations. Quantum-inspired AI algorithms can process data more efficiently and uncover patterns that may not be detectable by classical algorithms.
Bayero University in Kano State is exploring innovative ways to improve student performance prediction through advanced AI models. By adopting quantum-inspired AI techniques, the university can enhance the accuracy of performance predictions, allowing for early intervention and personalized academic support for students. This study aims to develop a quantum-inspired AI model for predicting student performance, using quantum-enhanced machine learning algorithms to analyze academic data and predict future outcomes.
