Statistical evaluation of the achievements of professional students by combination of the random forest algorithm and the ANFIS method

Abstract

This research is of great importance because it applies artificial intelligence methods, more specifically the Random Forest algorithm and the Anfis method to research the key factors that influence the success of students in vocational schools. Identifying these influencing factors is not only useful for improving curriculum and practice but also provides valuable guidance to help students master the material more effectively. The main goal of this research is to penetrate deeply into the core of the factors that influence the success of students in vocational schools, using two different methods. Each of the factors represented as input is mutually independent and does not affect each other, but each of them affects the output variable. The parameters considered as input variables are prior programming knowledge and pretest requirements. Then, by finding one factor that has the greatest influence, the factor of pre-exam obligation was investigated in more detail, using the Anfis method, which was broken down into several input parameters. These results emphasize the importance of the combination of the Random Forest algorithm and the ANFIS method in the statistical evaluation and assessment of student achievement in vocational schools. This study provides useful guidelines for improving education and practice in vocational schools to optimize educational outcomes.
