The ability to monitor the progress of students academic performance is a
critical issue to the academic community of higher learning. A system for
analyzing students results based on cluster analysis and uses standard
statistical algorithms to arrange their scores data according to the level of
their performance is described. In this paper, we also implemented k mean
clustering algorithm for analyzing students result data. The model was combined
with the deterministic model to analyze the students results of a private
Institution in Nigeria which is a good benchmark to monitor the progression of
academic performance of students in higher Institution for the purpose of
making an effective decision by the academic planners.Comment: IEEE format, International Journal of Computer Science and
