“…Additionally, none of the previous work used neural network models to predict software effort from use case diagrams. On the other hand, References (Pendharkar et al, 2005;Papatheocharous and Andreou, 2007;Kumar et al, 2008;de Barcelos Tronto et al, 2008;Park and Baek, 2008;Attarzadeh and Ow, 2011;Idri et al, 2008Idri et al, , 2010Reddy et al, 2008;Shin and Goel, 2000) used neural network models such as MLP and RBFNN to predict software estimation. References (Azzeh et al, 2010(Azzeh et al, , 2011Huang and Chiu, 2006) used soft computing techniques with analogy based estimation, whereas References (Idri and Abran, 2000;Huang et al, 2007) used soft computing with algorithmic models.…”
