A Dual-Network Modeling Architecture for Statistical Evaluation of College Graduates’ Working Ability in Consistence with Their Job Position and Remuneration

Abstract

Optimal human resources allocation asks to employ a person to work in the position corresponding to his/her ability. Employment competence is the key feedback to the cultivation of college students’ working ability. The data relationship needs to analyze between the in-school cultivation items and the working abilities required by the companies. Machine learning framework is introduced to study the companies’ responses to the cultivation of college students. In this work, a dual-network architecture is built up for statistical modeling evaluation of college graduates’ working ability in consistence with their job position and remuneration. A requirement network and a cultivation network are constructed for extracting features from the original working ability data required by companies and cultivated ever in school. The networks are fully trained by adaptively tuning the linking weights. The extracted features are fused together to estimate the working competence of each target sample/person. To evaluate the dual-network model, a modeling index system is designed, including proposing a total evaluation index calculus for the dual-network model, and a variable importance index from the original data. The samples are consequently ranked by the model predicted index and by the variable importance index, respectively. The ranking difference is used to evaluate the prediction efficiency of the dual-network model. Experimental results show that the dual network architecture is feasible to establish statistical models for the evaluation of college graduates’ in-school cultivated working ability in consistence with the company’s required working ability at their job position and their deserved remuneration.
