臺灣博碩士論文加值系統

最近台灣教育部為了強化技職體系高中學生的學習過程，而全面推動技職學校實施新課綱。這也使得科技大學的甄試入學方式上產生了重大的變革。 本研究乃是欲探討在技職體系大學甄試入學中，由學生申請的大學到最後真正進入的大學之資訊，來探討學生對於所申請大學的喜好程度。我們應用TrueSkill評比系統和社群網路視覺來分析所有大學的關連性及其相對的評比。亦即、我們的研究是應用技能競爭評估方法，然後構建一個社交網絡，因此，本研究將排序系統和網絡可視化的研究擴展到大數據分析和社交網絡中最優子集群的檢測。 它使每個大學分組都能夠了解適合這些分組大學的學生的特徵，並為學生提供未來選擇最適當的大學及其科系之參考

Currently, the Ministry of Education in Taiwan promotes the vocational-high schools to implement the new curriculums for strengthening students’ learning process. It makes the Taiwan’s entrance examination for universities of science and technology be with significant changes in the way of applying entrance admission for these universities. For investigating students’ preferences to different universities while they applied the entrance admissions of the favorite universities, we used the TrueSkill Ranking System and Social Network Visualization to analyze the relationships among the universities. Our research is to apply the skill competitive evaluation method and then constructs a social network to obtain the most appropriate interpretation of the social network concept hidden in a network of universities based on the information of students' entrance admission application. Therefore, this research extends the research of ranking system and network visualization to the analysis of big data and the detection of optimal sub-clusters in a social network. It makes each sub-group of universities can understand the characteristics of the students who are suitable for this sub-group universities and also provide students with reference to the future appropriate selection of universities and their departments.
