Scholarship Recipients Recommendation System Using AHP and Moora Methods
International journal of intelligent engineering and systems · 2022
Providing scholarships to students is an important action in helping students succeed in their studies.The scholarship recipients are students who meet the specified criteria.However, it is not easy to decide which scholarship recipients are genuinely eligible to receive scholarships, especially if the selection process for prospective scholarship recipients is done manually.Many prospective scholarship recipients must be selected, and more than one criterion is required.That is why it is not surprising that awarding scholarships to selected candidates takes a long time and the accuracy of the results is dubious.It means there needs to be a system that can assist in choosing prospective students who meet the criteria for the best requirements as scholarship recipients.Therefore, the purpose of this research is to build an application system that can provide recommendations for eligible candidates for scholarship recipients based on consideration of the criteria possessed by prospective scholarship recipients.This research method is an experimental study using a combination of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Multi-Objective Optimization Method by Ratio Analysis (Moora) method to rank scholarship recipients.The study results indicate that using an application system integrated into the database in recommending prospective scholarship recipients according to the desired conditions is more accurate using a combination of AHP and Moora methods (up to 94.07%) than using only one Moora method (which is only 89.62%).This means that the selection of scholarship recipients according to the desired qualifications using the AHP method for weighting and the Moora method for ranking is a combination of methods that have relatively more reliable accuracy.
