Abstract

Exploring campus lifestyle is conducive to innovating education management, optimizing campus resources allocation, and providing personalized services, but little attention had been paid to the exploration campus lifestyle. A novel interactive system based on behavioral data of campus cards is presented in this paper to provide new ideas and technical support for campus management. Interactive visualization techniques are utilized to help users analyze campus lifestyle via intelligible diagrams. The system contains three functional modules: providing a decision-making reference to educators on students’ poverty subsidies, predicting students’ academic performance by quantitative analysis, and scheduling cafeteria repast based on the scheduling model during the outbreak of COVID-19. Finally, three exploratory case studies are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the system.
