An evaluation of students performance using TOPSIS and Entropy approaches
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Research & Method in Education (IOSRJRME) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 6
Abstract
his study uses techniques for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) combined within formation entropy weight to investigate the performance of 20 students. Assessments in teaching and research and development ability reflect the short-term and long-term performance. Exact values and intervals characterize the attribute values in the current model. A comparison and experimental analysis show the applicability, feasibility, effectiveness, and advantages of the proposed method. In this study focused on the TOPSIS and Entropy to calculate the student's performance. First, in this case, study the logic of TOPSIS conferring to the standard decision theory. It appearances that TOPSIS also has a built-in multi-attribute value function that not revealed explicitly. So far, this has been a hidden feature of TOPSIS. Second, Entropy applied for the decision maker's (DM) behavioral propensity into TOPSIS. Finally, to improve evaluation accuracy of student performance, TOPSIS and Entropy applied to ranking the student with several criteria such as Presence (C1), Participation in Class (C2), Individual Assignment (C3), Group Assignment (C4), Quiz (C5), MidtermExam (C6), and Final Exam (C7).
