Title
Comparative analysis of statistical and machine learning methods for predicting faulty modules.
Abstract
•We investigate the performance of the fault proneness predictions using static code metrics.•The performance of logistic regression and six machine-learning methods (ANN, SVM, DT, CCN, GMDH and GEP) was evaluated in the study for predicting the fault proneness in the modules.•Thus, the aim of this work is to find the best predictor for predicting faulty modules.•The validation of the methods is carried out using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis.•In order to perform the analysis we validate the performance of these methods using public domain AR1 and AR6 data sets.
