Clone is the software code snippets that are similar to each other with little modifications. There is a 10-20 percent clone mostly present in the software. Many techniques are developed for detection. With the code clone detection, the software developer gets an idea of removing, refactoring the clone. Code clone has both advantages and disadvantages in the particular software. In this paper, we explore the types of code clones, advantages, and disadvantages, the reason for cloning. Typically, this paper describes various techniques by using several parameters. Lastly, we discuss gaps in the research.

“…Priyambadha and Rochimah provide a semantic clone detection technique based on program dependence graphs. Similarly, Sheneamer and Kalita consider abstract syntax trees and program dependency graphs. The innovative aspect of this approach is the representation of a pair of code fragments as a vector and the use of machine learning algorithms to detect clones.…”

“…One key factor that affects code quality is code cloning . Code clones are two fragments of source code that are syntactically or semantically identical to each other . According to Saini et al, it is possible to identify four different types of cloning concerning relations between two code fragments and based on the nature of the similarity in their text or meaning.…”

Code cloning can seriously affect software quality. Code clones are various fragments of syntactically or semantically equivalent code. Some authors argue that code clones have a negative impact on maintainability and understandability, since clones propagate defects and make it mandatory to pay attention to several copies. However, other authors believe clones are not necessarily bad, since self‐admitted clones favor system stability and allow developers to move projects forward. Although some root causes and effects of cloning have been widely studied, there is not much relevant work analyzing how certain projects context factors impact on code cloning. This work presents an empirical validation of six open source projects by considering certain factors from Git repositories measured throughout a total of 70 releases for the 6 systems. The factors analyzed were the number of commits and committers per release, the average size of the commits and the size of the system in each release. The main conclusion obtained from the study is that, while the number of commits and committers and the system size do not significantly affect cloning, larger commits lead to a higher cloning ratio. These insights contribute to predicting and preventing code cloning, thus enabling a software quality improvement.

“…Replicating code sections and afterward reuse by sticking with or without minor changes or variations are commonplace activities in programming advancements. This kind of reuse approach of existing code is called code cloning and the stuck code fragment (with or without alterations) is referred to as the image of the unique [3], [4].…”

“…Optimized Support Vector Machine is two special properties are that OSVM achieve: (i) High-generalization by maximizing the margin and (ii) Support an effective learning of non-linear methods by kernel trick. Optimized SVM helps to perform the mapping between the inputspace and feature-space to support non-linear classification issues [3], [18]. The kernel function is harmful for responsibility this by permitting the absence of the exact formulation of the method of mapping which can cause the issue of curse of dimensions.…”

Object-oriented programming today, is the main prototype in typical software development. Code Cloning defines generally, all through the designing and development of software systems. Detection can be based on Textual analysis, Lexical analysis, Syntax analysis, Semantic analysis, Hybrid analysis and Metric analysis. The major drawback of the present research is that it focuses more on fragments of copied code and does not focus on the aspect that the fragments of duplicated code are may be part of a larger replicated program structure. In this process, techniques take a lot of time and it creates complexity. In our research, a source code is then scanned for detecting various methods by adopting a “OPTIMIZED SVM ALGORITHM” and the method definitions are extracted and collected by means of a CLONE CODE and saved for further reference. To evaluate the performance parameters we calculate the LOC, the number of repetitions, and maximum and minimum LOC. To enhance the performance metrics precision recall, accuracy and reduce the error rate and time complexity
