Abstract: Academic performance prediction has become a crucial instrument for education management as higher education institutions keep improving the quality of their offerings. Many times lacking accuracy and great computing complexity, traditional academic performance prediction methods suffer. Thus, this work presents a logistic regression model based on the optimisation of alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) which is named Edu-ADDM-LR. By including ADMM into the logistic regression model, the model improves its predictive and generalising capacities as well as optimises the computing process. The experimental results show that the Edu-ADMM-LR model can efficiently manage the variety and complexity of students' performance in higher education teaching. Concurrently, the model shows great computational efficiency, great adaptability and stability in handling big-scale educational data. This work offers reliable decision support for educational managers and a fresh approach for academic achievement prediction in higher vocational colleges.

Keywords: academic performance prediction; higher education; alternating direction method of multipliers; ADMM; logistic regression; educational data analysis.
