融合文本分布式表示的重复缺陷报告检测

重复缺陷报告检测能够避免对描述同一缺陷的多份报告进行重复的任务分派和修复,可降低软件维护成本.为了进一步提高检测的准确率,提出一种融合文本分布式表示的重复缺陷报告检测方法.首先,基于大规模缺陷报告数据库训练Doc2Vec模型并抽取缺陷报告的分布式表示,将不同长度的缺陷报告编码为统一长度的稠密向量.接着,通过比较这些向量...

Duplicate bug report detection by combining distributed representations of documents

Duplicate bug report detection can avoid the repeated assignment and repair processes for multiple bug reports that describe the same bug, and thus greatly reduce the cost of software main- tenance. To improve the accuracy of detection, this paper proposes a duplicate bug report detection method by combining distributed representations of documents. Firstly, the Doc2Vec model is trained based on a large-scale defect report database, the distributed representations of bug reports are extracted, and the variable-sized bug reports are encoded into fixed-sized dense vectors. Secondly, the similarities between different bug reports are calculated by comparing their dense vectors, it is as a new feature and combined with traditional features commonly used in the process of duplicate bug report detection, and machine learning algorithm is used to train the binary classification model. Experimental results on public duplicate bug report datasets from Bugzilla show that, compared with the state of the art method D_TS, our method improves the F1 value by 2% on average, which indicates the effectiveness of the new feature.
