Abstract

Context. The urgent task of increasing the functional efficiency of machine learning of decision support system (DSS) for assessing compliance with content modern requirements of the educational disciplines of the graduation department based on the results of the employer survey has been solved.

Objective. Increasing the functional efficiency of machine learning of DSS for assessing compliance with modern requirements of the educational disciplines content of the first (bachelor’s) level specialty educational and professional program based on machine learning and pattern recognition.

Method. The method of machine learning of DSS is proposed for adapting the educational content of the graduation department to the labor market requirements. The idea of the method is to maximize the information capacity of the DSS in the machine learning process, which allows in the monitoring mode to guarantee a high full probability of making the correct classification decisions. The method was developed as part of a functional approach to modeling cognitive processes of natural intelligence, which makes it possible to provide DSS with flexibility when retraining the system due to increasing the power of the recognition classes alphabet. The method is based on the principle of maximizing the amount of information in the machine learning process. The modified Kullback information measure, which is a functional of the accuracy characteristics of classification solutions, is considered as a criterion for optimizing machine learning parameters. According to the proposed functional category model, an information-extreme machine learning algorithm was developed based on the hierarchical data structure in the form of a binary decursive tree. The use of such a data structure allows you to automatically divide a large number of recognition classes into pairs of nearest neighbors, for which optimization of machine learning parameters is carried out according to a linear algorithm of the required depth. The geometric parameters of hyperspherical containers of recognition classes were considered as optimization parameters, which were restored in the radial basis of the binary space of Hamming features in the machine learning process. At the same time, the input traning matrix was transformed into a working binary training matrix, which was changed in the machine learning process through admissible transformations in order to adapt the input information description of the DSS to the maximum reliability of classification decisions.

Results. The informational, algorithmic, and software of the DSS was developed to assess the educational content quality based on the machine analysis results of respondents’ answers. Within the framework of the geometric approach, based on the informationextreme machine learning results, highly reliable decisive rules, practically invariant to the multidimensionality of the recognition features space, were constructed based on the hierarchical data structure in the form of a binary decursive tree. The influence of machine learning parameters on the functional effectiveness of machine learning of the DSS was studied on the evaluation example of the educational content of the educational and professional bachelor’s program of the specialty 122 Computer Science.

Conclusions. The computer modeling results confirm the high functional efficiency of the proposed method of informationextreme hierarchical machine learning and can be recommended for practical use in institutions of higher education to assess compliance with modern requirements of the educational content of graduation departments.
