Developing a model to predict mathematics performance using neural network / Normaziah Abdul Rahman, Fadzilah Siraj and Noor Aishikin Adam

This study aims to use neural network to develop a model to predict mathematics performance of Universiti Teknologi MARA Kampus Melaka (UiTMKM) students. This model allows the system administrator to train and normalize data as well as trains. Once the model has been established, the system can be u...
