The increasing reliance on digital education platforms highlights the need for adaptive recommendation systems that can personalize learning experiences. Conventional approaches often fail to address the uncertainty and complexity of learner behavior, resulting in limited adaptability. This study proposes a soft computing-based framework for adaptive e-learning recommendations, integrating fuzzy logic, neural networks, and evolutionary algorithms to model learner preferences and optimize recommendation outcomes. The research focuses on course selection and content personalization within e-learning environments, aiming to improve learner engagement and performance. A review of state-of-the-art methods shows that most prior studies rely on single techniques or simple hybrids, which lack robustness in handling diverse learner contexts. In contrast, the proposed framework introduces a novel hybridization of soft computing methods, offering enhanced flexibility and accuracy. Experimental evaluation using real-world datasets demonstrates superior performance compared to traditional collaborative filtering and content-based systems, with notable improvements in adaptability and learner satisfaction. The findings contribute both theoretical innovation and practical guidelines for implementing intelligent recommendation systems in modern e-learning platforms.
