Abstract:Improving software quality by proactively detecting potential defects during development is a major goal of software engineering. Software defect prediction plays a central role in achieving this goal. The power of data analytics and machine learning allows us to focus our efforts where they are needed most. A key factor in the success of software fault prediction is selecting relevant features and reducing data dimensionality. Feature selection methods contribute by filtering out the most critical attributes … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
