Abstract: This paper will design and implement a cloud-based student management information platform, aiming to
provide efficient and intelligent decision support for school management. In order to allow the school to
integrate students' grades, attendance and other data based on the cloud computing platform, to achieve unified
management and real-time analysis of data. In this paper, this paper first constructs a student management
informatization algorithm framework based on cloud computing and intelligent algorithms, further
strengthens and improves the framework, and finally uses the algorithm framework to carry out real-time
prediction and evaluation based on cloud computing. The results of the experiment showed that after using
the platform, the attendance rate of students increased significantly, especially those with behavioral
problems, with an average increase of 10% in academic performance and a 20% reduction in disciplinary
action. Comprehensive analysis shows that the platform can greatly improve the management efficiency of
schools and provide accurate data support for teaching and management decision-making based on effective
integration of student information and intelligent intervention. It can be seen that the design and
implementation of student management informatization algorithm based on cloud computing has reliability
and practicability.
1 INTRODUCTION
The student management information platform is a
key research field in the current education
management, and schools are basically faced with the
problem of scattered student data and inability to
obtain comprehensive information in time. In order to
solve these problems, some researchers have
proposed that centralized databases can be used to
solve the problems, but these methods are not enough
to achieve real-time monitoring and dynamic
management. Some researchers also proposed that
big data analysis technology can be used to achieve
effective problem solving by combining various
information platforms of the school. However, these
methods have poor platform integration and
insufficient prediction accuracy. In the existing
research, although some methods can achieve the
initial integration of data, they do not have enough
reliable performance in intelligent intervention and
real-time prediction. To this end, this paper uses an
intelligent algorithm based on cloud computing to
study the student management information platform,
which is based on the powerful processing power of
the cloud computing platform to fully integrate the
multi-dimensional data of students. At the same time,
this paper also applies gradient boosting decision tree
and other algorithms to achieve accurate prediction
and behavioral intervention for students'
performance. The advantage of this approach is that
the data can be updated in real time and the
management recommendations can be tailored to the
individual needs of the students. It is hoped that the
research in this paper can help schools to greatly
improve their management efficiency. At the same
time, the advantages of cloud computing are
introduced, and the design and implementation of
student management information algorithms based on
cloud computing are proposed.

network services, and can dynamically allocate
resources based on demand (Chen, 2022). Cloud
computing is mainly Infrastructure-as-a-Service IaaS,
Platform-as-a-Service PaaS, and Software-as-a-
Service SaaS. In the student management information
platform, the cloud computing platform can provide
efficient data processing and storage capabilities, and
realize real-time analysis and processing of large-
scale data based on distributed computing and elastic
expansion. In the midst of this, the elastic scalability
of cloud computing (Han, Long, et al 2024) will be
able to dynamically adjust resources according to
changes in the amount of student data, and then keep
the platform running at its best. Using APIs and
interfaces, cloud computing can also provide a
convenient way to integrate student management
platforms (Li, 2023), which in turn enables school
administrators to obtain data in real time and make
timely decisions.
2.2 Gradient Boosting Decision Tree
Prediction Ability in Terms of
Students' Multi-Dimensional
Features
Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) is an
ensemble learning algorithm that is based on
progressively strengthening multiple decision trees
and combining their results to form a powerful
prediction framework (Wu, 2023). Based on the
iterative optimization loss function, GBDT reduces
the error step by step, and each new tree fits the
residuals of the previous iteration to continuously
improve the prediction accuracy (Xiang, Shuai, et al
2022). In the student management information
platform, GBDT can build a prediction framework
based on the multi-dimensional characteristics of
students, such as grades, attendance, behavior records
and other characteristics, so that managers can predict
students' future performance in real time. GBDT has
excellent generalization capabilities, can handle
nonlinear relationships, and provides stable
performance in the face of large amounts of data (Xu,
Chen, et al 2022).
3 METHODS
3.1 The Overall Architecture of The
Student Management Information
System Based on Cloud Computing
In this platform, there are several functional elements
that need to be included, and each functional element
is responsible for its own part. Specifically, the data
collection function can collect students' basic
information, grades, attendance, behavior data, etc.
based on different data sources. These data sources
include student management platforms, learning
platforms, electronic attendance platforms, etc. With
this feature, the platform can automatically integrate
various data to provide the basis for subsequent
analysis and prediction (Xu, Huang, et al 2022). For
example, when a student takes a course, the platform
will automatically record their learning behavior and
grades. The data preprocessing function is mainly
responsible for cleaning and sorting the collected raw
data, such as processing missing values, filtering
abnormal data, and standardizing data formats. In this
way, the data can be consistent and complete, and
then the subsequent enhancement of the framework,
as well as optimization and prediction, will have high-
quality inputs. Feature extraction and selection
function to extract important features that have an
impact on student performance from the preprocessed
data. These characteristics may include test scores,
attendance, assignment completion, and more. Based
on the distributed processing power of the cloud
computing platform, it is possible to quickly select the
features that are most useful for the framework
prediction. For example, when analyzing student
performance, the platform automatically extracts
students' performance in different subjects and uses
them to predict their overall academic progress.
Framework hardening functional device, which
can use large-scale data on the cloud computing
platform to carry out distributed framework
hardening. The GBDT algorithm is used to enhance
the prediction framework to achieve accurate
prediction of students' future performance. The
parallel computing capability based on cloud
computing can significantly improve the hardening
efficiency of the framework and shorten the
hardening time. For example, the platform is
enhanced based on large-scale student achievement
data to predict students' next test scores. The real-time
prediction and assessment feature can make real-time
predictions of newly entered student data based on an
enhanced framework. For example, after a student
submits an assignment or exam, the platform
automatically predicts their future learning
performance and the required interventions. This
feature can also evaluate the accuracy of predictions
and the generalization ability of the framework to
provide feedback for subsequent framework
optimization. Based on this, school administrators are
able to monitor students' academic dynamics in real

time and make data-driven decisions based on them.
Security and rights management features that will
protect the security and privacy of student data on the
platform. Based on the security tool of the cloud
computing platform, this functional device can ensure
that the data is encrypted during transmission and
storage, and that only authorized users can access and
manipulate the data. If school administrators only
have access to student data that is limited to their area
of authority, they can prevent unauthorized persons
from viewing sensitive information.
3.2 Design of Student Management
Informatization Algorithm
Framework Based on Cloud
Computing
The goal of feature engineering is to extract and select
important features from a large amount of student
data that are effective in predicting student
performance and management. On the cloud
computing platform, based on the collection of
students' student status information, achievement
data, attendance records, and behavior data, feature
selection algorithms, such as mutual information
methods, can be used to determine which features can
best influence the target variables. For this, see Eq.
(1).

the influence of a characteristic on the target variable,
i.e., the contribution to student achievement and
management decision-making.
Decision tree initialization is the step that
provides the basic structure to the framework. On the
cloud computing platform, multiple weak learners,
that is, decision trees, can be generated in parallel.
Each tree represents a simple prediction framework.
For example, the split point of the tree can be a
student's test scores, such as math and English scores
above a certain threshold. For this, see Eq. (2).

Represents the loss function, which is used to
measure the prediction error of each decision tree.
Data characteristics that represent ๐‘–the first student,
such as that student's attendance, test scores, etc.
Based on multiple iterations of optimization, the
predictive performance of the framework can be
improved. In each iteration, the newly generated
decision tree is designed to fit the residuals of the
previous tree, thereby gradually reducing the
prediction error of the overall framework. For this,
see Eq. (3).

In this formula,๐‘ฆ๎ทœ

is the prediction of the
framework after the first iteration is described๐‘š, such
as predicting a student's final grade. ๐œ‚Represents the
learning rate, which controls the degree to which each
new tree contributes to the overall prediction of the
framework. โ„Ž
๎ฏ 
(๐‘ฅ) represents ๐‘šthe output of the first
decision tree, representing the fitting of the residuals
of the previous iteration. Based on iteration, the
framework can gradually improve the accuracy of
predicting students' performance, such as future
performance and management needs, and help
schools intervene and adjust teaching and
management strategies in a timely manner.
3.3 Further Implementation of the
Cloud-Based Student Management
Information Algorithm Framework
Frame hardening is the process of adjusting frame
parameters based on large-scale data reinforcement to
more accurately reflect the characteristics of student
data. In the student management information
platform, the reinforcement data comes from years of
student performance, behavior, attendance data, etc.
Based on optimization algorithms such as gradient
descent method, the prediction error can be further
minimized, and the framework can be more accurate.
Framework optimization is a step to improve the
performance of a framework after hardening. In the
student management information platform, the
optimization framework can ensure that it can
maintain efficient prediction and management
capabilities in various data environments.
The purpose of hyperparameter optimization is to
find the optimal framework hyperparameters, such as
learning rate and depth of decision tree, so as to
improve the applicability of the framework in the
student management information platform. A cloud
computing platform-based grid search approach that
enables testing different combinations of

hyperparameters to find the configuration that works
best for the framework. See Eq. (4) for details.

value of the loss function under cross-validation, the
purpose of which is to measure the performance
stability of the framework in different data segments.
In the student management information platform,
optimizing hyperparameters can ensure that the
framework performs consistently in predicting
different types of student data, such as different
grades and courses, and avoids excessive prediction
errors under some sober conditions.
Constraints are also necessary. In the student
management information platform, the framework
may overfit some specific student data, so it is
necessary to limit the complexity of the framework
based on constraints. For this, see Eq. (5).

the weight vector, which is intended to penalize too
large frame parameters and keep the framework
stable and concise.
Constraints prevent the framework from relying
too heavily on irrelevant features, and ensure that it
can make predictions and decisions on new student
data.
Evaluating the framework with an independent
validation set is a critical step in the optimization
process to more effectively test its performance on
unseen data. Specific evaluation indicators include
accuracy, recall, etc., which can be quickly achieved
based on the distributed computing of the cloud
computing platform. See Eq. (6) for details.

3.4 Cloud Service Interface and
Platform Integration
The task of the cloud service interface is to integrate
the functional components of the student
management information platform into the existing
school management platform, and transmit and share
data in real time based on the API interface. It will
leverage the standardized service interfaces provided
by the cloud computing platform, such as RESTful
API, SOAP API, to ensure interoperability between
platforms to enable seamless integration of real-time
prediction results. For example, when a student's
attendance data is updated, the platform automatically
invokes the cloud prediction service based on the API
to generate the student's performance prediction
results in real time and feed them back to the school
administrator. In addition, the cloud service interface
also supports real-time processing and dynamic
adjustment of data streams, ensuring that the platform
can quickly predict and update according to new
student data (Li, 2023). Based on the cloud-based
service-based architecture, the school management
platform can not only obtain real-time analysis of
student performance, but also automatically adjust
management strategies based on the feedback from
the framework. For example, when a student's
performance warning is triggered, the platform can
immediately notify the relevant teachers and parents
and take timely interventions.
4 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
4.1 Background of the Case
In the education management of a key high school in
a city, the school faced the challenge of how to
manage students' academic and behavioral
performance more efficiently. The school has nearly
2,000 students, and their information, including
student status, grades, attendance, extracurricular
activities and other data, is stored on different
platforms, making it difficult for administrators to
obtain comprehensive information and make
reasonable decisions in a timely manner.

The table shows academic and behavioural
problems, in which students with lower attendance
also perform poorly and have higher behavioural
problems. The programming content of the
information system is shown in figure 1.
Figure 1: The programming process of information
systems.
Through the same system analysis, student
information can be regulated and classified to form a
data set, which can be discussed and analyzed later. it
can be found that the attendance rate of the 6
randomly selected students is generally low,
generally only 75%~85%, which leads to their poor
academic performance, which is generally
concentrated in 68-78 points, and more than 90 points
are almost non-existent. Based on this, the school
decided to introduce a cloud-based student
management information platform, based on the
integration of various data, and the application of
intelligent algorithms for analysis and prediction, so
as to improve management efficiency and formulate
new management strategies. Before the introduction
of the platform, schools mainly relied on teachers to
manually record and manage, and the scattered and
lagging update of data seriously affected the timely
management of students, such as failing to intervene
in time with poor academic performance and
behavioral problems.
4.2 Optimization Content of
Informatization
Based on the use of this information platform, the
school integrates students' academic and behavioral
data into the cloud, and applies big data analysis
technology to provide comprehensive and real-time
student performance evaluation and personalized
management suggestions for the school.

The table shows improvements in attendance,
academic performance, and especially for students
with behavioral problems. The data of the three
tables, it can be seen that after the use of the platform,
the attendance rate of students has increased
significantly, especially those students with low
attendance rates, such as student IDs 101 and 104,
from 80% and 75% to 90% and above. These
students' math scores also increased from 72 and 68
to 80 and 78. These students have seen significant
improvements in their academic performance based
on improved attendance. The continuity analysis of
studentsโ€™ information design process is carried out to
form an effective dataset as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2: The content and ways of changes in student
management information.
The platform effectively identifies and intervenes
in students with behavioral problems based on
behavioral management functional components, such
as student IDs 101 and 104, and under the guidance
of the platform, disciplinary actions and behavioral
problems are significantly reduced.

4.3 Analysis of the Optimization
Results of Student Information
The academic performance of such students has also
improved significantly after using the platform, such
as 80 points in mathematics and 85 points in science,
indicating that behavioral improvement is helpful for
academic improvement. In addition, in the second
semester after using the platform, the overall
academic performance of students continued to
improve. The analysis content and conditions are
shown in Table 3.

The table shows that the platform continues to
improve student attendance, academic performance,
and the number of disciplinary actions for students
with behavioral problems has also been significantly
reduced. Continuously analyze the entire information
optimization process and obtain the results shown in
Figure 3.
Figure 3: The optimization process of student information.
According to the data analysis in Figure 3, the
process of learning information is consistent with the
changing demands of cloud computing. students'
scores in mathematics with IDs 101 and 105 have
increased from 80 and 88 to 85 and 90, and their
English scores have also improved. Based on the
personalized teaching suggestions provided by the
platform, schools can develop targeted academic
plans for different students to effectively improve
their overall academic performance.
5 CONCLUSIONS
In summary, it can be seen that the design and
implementation of the student management
informatization algorithm based on cloud computing
studied in this paper has been successfully completed.
To this end, this paper constructs a corresponding
platform, which can effectively improve the
management efficiency of schools, based on cloud
computing and intelligent algorithms
Integrate and analyze students' multi-dimensional
data in real time to achieve accurate prediction of
academic and behavioral performance. The platform
not only improves student attendance and academic
performance, but also reduces the occurrence of
disciplinary problems based on intelligent behavioral
interventions. Based on the efficient data processing
capability of the cloud computing platform, the
school can also realize personalized management
strategies and update them in real time, so as to
provide strong technical support for student
management informatization. In short, the platform
can successfully solve many problems in traditional
student management, such as data fragmentation and
post-management, and greatly improve the quality of
education in schools. However, the research in this
paper still has the problem of insufficient data
comprehensiveness, and it is expected that further
improvements will be made in the future.
