ANALISIS RANDOM FOREST PADA KLASIFIKASI CART KETIDAKTEPATAN WAKTU KELULUSAN MAHASISWA UNIVERSITAS TERBUKA

Abstract

Classification and Regression Tree (CART) is one of the classification methods that are popularly used in various fields. The method is considered capable of dealing with various data conditions. However, the CART method has weaknesses in the classification tree prediction, which is less stable in changes in learning data which will cause major changes in the results of the classification tree prediction. Improving the predictions of the CART classification tree, an ensemble random forest method was developed that combines many classification trees to improve stability and determine classification predictions. This study aims to improve CART predictive stability and accuracy with Random Forest. The case used in this study is the classification of inaccuracies in Open University student graduation. The results of the analysis show that random forest is able to increase the accuracy of the classification of the inaccuracy of student graduation that reaches convergence with the prediction of classification reaching 93.23%.
