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...

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. Recent studies have shown that Support Vector Regression (SVR) has an interesting potential in the field of effort estimation. However applying SVR requires to careful...
