Fixing software bugs can be colossally expensive, especially if they are discovered in the
later phases of the software development life cycle. As such, bug prediction has been a …

The label quality of defect data sets has a direct influence on the reliability of defect
prediction models. In this paper, we conduct a systematic study of inconsistent defect labels …

Many statistical analyses and prediction models rely on past data about how a system
evolves to learn and anticipate the number of changes and bugs it will have in the future. As …

The cost of software maintenance often surpasses the initial development expenses, making
it a significant concern for the software industry. A key strategy for alleviating future …

The label quality of defect data sets has a direct influence on the reliability of defect
prediction models. In this study, for multi-version-project defect data sets, we propose an …

Background Test resources are usually limited and therefore it is often not possible to
completely test an application before a release. To cope with the problem of scarce …

Human factors play a significant role in software development. When the human element is
not considered in software development, it may lead to faulty software which may cause …
