Previous studies widely report the optimization of performance predictions to highlight at-risk students and advance the achievement of excellent students. They also have contributions that overlap different fields of research. On the one hand, they have insightful psychological studies, data mining discoveries, and data analysis findings. On the other hand, they produce a variety of performance prediction approaches to assess students’ performance during cognitive tasks. However, the synchronization between these studies is still a black box that increases prediction systems’ dependency on real-world datasets. It also delays the mathematical modeling of students’ emotional attributes. This review paper performs an insightful analysis and thorough literature-based survey to draw a comprehensive picture of potential challenges and prior contributions. The review consists of 1497 publications from 1990 to 2022 (32 years), which reported various opportunities for future performance prediction researchers. First, it evaluates psychological studies, data analysis results, and data mining findings to provide a general picture of the statistical association among students’ performance and various influential factors. Second, it critically evaluates new students’ performance prediction techniques, modifications in existing techniques, and comprehensive studies based on the comparative analysis. Lastly, future directions and potential pilot projects based on the assumption-based dataset are highlighted to optimize the existing performance prediction systems.

Recommendations
Learning-aided predictor integration for system performance prediction
The integration of multiple predictors promises higher prediction accuracy than the accuracy that can be obtained with a single predictor. The challenge is how to select the best predictor at any given moment. Traditionally, multiple predictors are run ...
Mobility prediction using future knowledge
MSWiM '07: Proceedings of the 10th ACM Symposium on Modeling, analysis, and simulation of wireless and mobile systemsAnticipating user mobility can be a critical feature for today's mobile systems. We introduce a novel location predictor which incorporates knowledge of a user's potential future locations to improve prediction accuracy. Such future knowledge is often ...
Software defect prediction: future directions and challenges
AbstractSoftware defect prediction is one of the most popular research topics in software engineering. The objective of defect prediction is to identify defective instances prior to the occurrence of software defects, thus it aids in more effectively ...
