Towards building a universal defect prediction model
2014
Proceedings of the 11th Working Conference on Mining Software Repositories - MSR 2014
A universal defect prediction model that is built from the entire set of diverse projects would relieve the need for building models for an individual project. ...
However, the variations in the distribution of predictors pose a formidable obstacle to build a universal model. ...
The authors would also like to thank Professor Daniel German from University of Victoria for his insightful advice. ...

Data Mining Static Code Attributes to Learn Defect Predictors
2007
IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering
Also, contrary to prior pessimism, we show that such defect predictors are demonstrably useful and, on the data studied here, yield predictors with a mean probability of detection of 71 percent and mean ...
The value of using static code attributes to learn defect predictors has been widely debated. ...

A General Software Defect-Proneness Prediction Framework
2011
IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering
The defect predictor builds models according to the evaluated learning scheme and predicts software defects with new data according to the constructed model. ...
BACKGROUND -predicting defect-prone software components is an economically important activity and so has received a good deal of attention. ...
That is, we build a predictive model according to a scheme with only 'historical' data and validate the model on the independent 'new' data. ...

Information and Software Technology
The objective of this work is to validate the feasibility of the predictor built with a simplified metric set for software defect prediction in different scenarios, and to investigate practical guidelines ...
Software defect prediction plays a crucial role in estimating the most defect-prone components of software, and a large number of studies have pursued improving prediction accuracy within a project or ...
In other words, can we find a universal predictor built with few metrics (e.g., Lines of Code (LOC)) that achieves an acceptable result compared with those complex prediction models? ...
