Abstract :
In the realm of media studies, understanding student evolution is a crucial aspect for educators and researchers. However, traditional research methods often struggle to capture the dynamic nature of media consumption and the intricate interactions between individuals and media content. To address this challenge, this paper focuses on leveraging social media data fusion and machine learning techniques to enhance the comprehension of student evolution. By integrating data from diverse social media sources and employing the CATBoost algorithm with the Greedy Target-based Statistics (Greedy TBS) technique, we aim to predict student outcomes based on a comprehensive set of attributes. The results showcase the superior performance of CATBoost in accurately capturing the complexities of student evolution, surpassing other machine learning algorithms. The findings hold immense significance for educators, empowering them with valuable insights into students' behaviors, preferences, and performance.
