Abstract
Accurate forecasting of the baccalaureate admission statistics is a crucial step towards an improvement of the educational system in Mauritania and its responsiveness to the economical needs. Since an available historical information is collected only over last ten years, an accurate forecasting technique for short time series is required. Addressing this issue, the presented paper proposes a tool based on the genetic programming and Kalman filter. This tool allows to make accurate short term prediction for short time series and easily set up experiments. A tool validation on different data sets is presented, where the provided tool provides more robust forecasting results comparatively with the state-of-the-art techniques. It is expected that this tool can help to make a qualitative jump in the improvement of Mauritanian education system.
