Background: The main goal of the PROMISE repository is to enable reproducible, and thus verifiable or refutable research. Over time, plenty of data sets became available, especial...
Background: Previous research has provided evidence that a combination of static code metrics and software history metrics can be used to predict with surprising success which fil...

BACKGROUND: Defect predictors learned from static code measures can isolate code modules with a higher than usual probability of defects. AIMS: To improve those learners by focusi...
Background: The relation between software effort and size has been modeled in literature as exponential, in the sense that the natural logarithm of effort is expressed as a linear...
Background: There are many data mining methods but few comparisons between them. For example, there are at least two ways to build quality optimizers, programs that find project o...
Background: Defects are related to failures and they do not have much power for indicating a higher quality or a better system above the baseline that the end-users expect. Nevert...
Background. Software defect prediction has been one of the central topics of software engineering. Predicted defect counts have been used mainly to assess software quality and est...
