Shrnutí:In the contemporary educational landscape, proactively engaging in predictive assessment has become indispensable for academic institutions. This strategic imperative involves evaluating students based on their innate aptitude, preparing them adequately for impending examinations, and fostering both academic and personal development. Alarming statistics underscore a notable failure rate among students, particularly in courses. This article aims to employ predictive methodologies to assess and anticipate the academic performance of students in language courses during the G2 and G3 academic exams. The study utilizes the Gaussian Process Classification (GPC) model in conjunction with two optimization algorithms, the Population-based Vortex Search Algorithm (PVS) and the COOT Optimization Algorithm (COA), resulting in the creation of GPPV and GPCO models. The classification of students into distinct performance categories based on their language scores reveals that the GPPV model exhibits the highest concordance between measured and predicted outcomes. In G2, the GPPV model demonstrated the notable 51.1% correct categorization of students as Poor, followed by 25.57% in the Acceptable category, 14.17% in the good category, and 7.7% in the Excellent category. This performance surpasses both the optimized GPCO model and the singular GPC model, signifying its efficacy in predictive analysis and educational advancement.
