Prediksi Tingkat Keberhasilan Mahasiswa Tingkat I IPB Dengan Metode k-Nearest Neighbor

Abstract

Analysis of academic data and personal data of first-year students in IPB is necessary to predict the successful of their study in the end of the first year. One of techniques in classification that can be used for completing that task is k-nearest neighbor that will build a classifier. This research aimed to develop classifier to predict the successful of first year students at IPB. The attributes used in this research are selected based on target class-influenced statistic hipotesis test. Chi-square test is implemented for nominal attributes whereas Spearman Rank Correlation Coeficient test is used for selecting the numerical attribute. The result of this research is a classifier with accuracy 52.97%.
