Abstract : Deep learning, a subset of artificial intelligence, gives easy way for the analytical and physical tasks to be done automatically. There is a less necessity for human intervention while performing these tasks. Deep hybrid learning is a blended approach to combine machine learning with deep learning. A hybrid deep learning (HDL) model using convolutional neural network (CNN), residual network (ResNet) and long short term memory (LSTM) is proposed for better course selection of the enrolled candidates in an online learning platform. In this work, a hybrid framework that facilitates the analysis and design of a recommendation system for course selection is developed. A student’s schedule for the next course should consist of classes in which the student has shown interest. For universities to schedule classes optimally, they need to know what courses each student wants to take before each course begins. The proposed recommendation system selects the most appropriate course that can encourage students to base their selection on informed decision making. This system will enable learners to obtain the correct choices of courses to be studied.
