Predicting Software Bugs of Newly and Large Datasets Through a Unified Neuro-Fuzzy Approach: Reliability Perspective

Abstract

Reliability of software is an essential concern for users for a long time. Software reliability is mainly obtained through modeling and estimating. There are numerous methods for reducing the failure rate. However, the existing methods are nonlinear. Hence the parameter estimation of these methods is difficult. This paper concerns on estimation and prediction of software reliability through different soft computing methods for improving the reliability of software. For estimation and prediction, the authors of this paper take two soft computing methodologies, including fuzzy logic and neural network. The outcomes seem to give satisfactory results on large datasets. For experiments, this paper is using two different large datasets of Apache server and MyLyn application software for showing the effectiveness of the results. The proposed methods of prediction would be useful for practitioners to simplify the procedures during software development in large datasets for reducing failures of software.

Quantitative Evaluation of Mental-Health in Type-2 Diabetes Patients Through Computational Model

“…The TOPSIS procedure is primarily founded on the chance of outright detachment, without veering off from the positive ideal course of action, and the negative ideal reaction to the ideal and not exactly ideal plans, alone. The TOPSIS technique is significant for allocating different alternatives to ideal circumstances and elements identified with rules [36][37][38][39]. To accomplish consistency with fuzzy climate, TOPSIS downsizes the fuzzy number to the one addressed by the slant and settles the significance of the model.…”

Software Reliability Assessment Using Hybrid Neuro-Fuzzy Model

“…Various authors proposed methods for the prediction of software reliability like bio-inspired hybrid soft computing techniques. In their paper, Sahu et al [16] also proposed an estimation model using the neural network approach and compared the results with the hybrid Neuro-fuzzy approach.…”
