“While all efforts are being made to prevent use of unfair means practices during conduct of examinations in physical terms through monitoring by appointing external observers or flying squads and use of CCTV, CBSE has decided further to improve upon it by using advanced data analytics to detect cases/centres while there is a high probability of recourse to unfair means during examinations,” the board said in an official statement.

According to an official notification from CBSE, the board in collaboration with Central Square Foundation (CSF) and Playpower Labs has done an analysis on Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) exam date which was held in January 2021 to develop algorithms to identify suspicious data patterns at the centre and the individual test-taker level.

The board will use advanced data analytics to detect, respond and prevent any irregularities in academic testing across all major CBSE administered exams in the country.

On the basis of such analysis, CBSE intends to identify examination centres where the data indicates the existence of malpractices during the conduct of examinations.

After this, the board will take appropriate action to strengthen the reliability of the examinations and to deter any such malpractices in the future.
