Research on Personalized Learning Resource Recommendation Based on Knowledge Graph Technology
Full text linkIn the face of the dilemma of learners\u27 learning loss and information overload in information resources, a personalized learning resource recommendation algorithm is proposed by conducting in-depth and extensive research on the knowledge graph. This algorithm relies on the similarity or correlation between learners\u27 characteristics and course knowledge (learning resources) for recommendation. It analyzes learners\u27 characteristics in depth from four aspects: data collection and processing, model construction, resource and path recommendation, and model application, and establishes a multi layered dynamic feature model for learners; Analyze the core elements of the curriculum knowledge graph, decompose the curriculum knowledge into nanoscale knowledge granularity, and construct a curriculum knowledge graph model. The experimental results indicate that this algorithm improves learners\u27 learning efficiency and promotes their personalized development

Employee Attrition System Prediction using Random Forest Classifier
Full text linkDespite rising unemployment, most job coverage of the COVID-19 outbreak has concentrated on layoffs. Employees have been fired for reasons related to the epidemic, which has been a less prominent issue. COVID-19 is still doing damage to the country\u27s economy. Companies are in the midst of a recession, so they are beginning to fire off unproductive employees. Making critical decisions like laying off employees or cutting an employee\u27s compensation is a challenging undertaking that must be done with extreme attention and accuracy. Adding negligence would harm the employee\u27s career and the company\u27s image in the industry. In this paper, we have predicted employee attrition using Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Decision Tree techniques. Random Forest Classifier has outperformed other algorithms in this work. After using different machine learning techniques, we can say that Random Forest gives the best performance with a recall of 70%, and also, we have found Precision, Accuracy, and F1- Score
