Predicting Student Performance: A Solution for the KDD Cup 2010 Challenge

This paper describes our solution for the KDD Cup 2010 Challenge. The solution is based on a solution framework designed by us. And the framework is a general data-mining procedure that is able to handle asymmetric training and test sets as well as non-atomic and variable-length attributes. The paper will first present the solution framework, and then the solution that we used to generate the final submission.
