Computer Based Recommender System

Choosing the right course, in the formative years of study is a very important decision as the future depends on this. Students are not yet mature enough to take the right decision at this stage. Selecting the wrong course means mismatch between student aptitude, capability and personal interest. Faculty or parents are mostly inexperienced. There being no other reliable source available for the most suitable direction, the recommender system has been evolved to provide him guidance in selecting the right course. A recommender system is a computer program prepared with the help of experts where the details of the background of the students and their aptitude help finding a course for his future study. Feasible predictions for student's course selection based on their marks and choice of job interest are developed logically and the problems of students are addressed via the neural network architecture based admission system helping in reducing all the problems and undesirable features ingrained in the current system and offers a well-polished, transparent and cost-effective way of selection of courses.
